. Identify ways that research supports the effectiveness of notetaking.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Response should include:
• Research supports the effectiveness of notetaking and notetaking strategies. Notetaking not only provides a permanent product from which students can study, research shows that those who take notes increase their attention; active engagement; ability to paraphrase; elaborate and seek clarification; comprehension; later recall of information; and performance on tests. Generally speaking, teachers should not hand out complete notes as a replacement for students taking notes. Studies show that listening and then being given the notes is not as effective as taking notes.
• Studies have examined the effectiveness of notetaking instruction on students with learning disabilities, emotional/behavioral disorders, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Results indicate that students with high-incidence disabilities can be taught to use notetaking strategies, which in turn lead to better academic performance on tests. Research also documents that guided notes can facilitate increased learning.
Learning Objective: Compare and contrast organizing strategies, study strategies, test-taking strategies, and notetaking strategies. Provide multiple examples of each and describe when and how they should be taught.
