Which technique is most helpful to a student who wishes to better organize the material presented during a lecture?
a. Note making
b. Shorthand
c. Tape recording
d. Passive listening
ANS: A
Note making and condensing material require active listening and promote organization of key ideas and concepts. Using shorthand requires transcription and does not necessarily result in organized notes. Tape recording simply gives a replay of the lecture; it does not organize the information. Passive listening does not contribute to organization.
