Making abstraction of lecture notes
The objective of taking lecture notes is to understand the concept with the logic behind it, which would make studying the subject easier.
The common ways of taking up lecture notes are as follows:
• First, making a note of the title what the lecturer is briefing about and making subparts or classification of the same, if any.
• Second, writing the definition in brief, which explains the concept.
• Third, writing keywords that are related or more significant to understand the concept.
• Fourth, taking up the diagram or formula that is very important to the concept.
• Finally, wrapping it up with some references given by the lecturer.
Why just abstraction
Taking lecture notes is different from taking up a dictation. Making abstractions from lecture depends on understanding the concept that is narrated by the lecturer. Here, every word of lecture is not taken up in notes. It is usually making short notes on the lecture.
Making abstraction from a huge lecture cuts short the information accurately and makes sense precisely.
For instance: a lecturer may give a practical example while explaining the concept; this need not be included in the notes.
Delimiting the lecture notes
Any complex problem can be solved with a better understanding of the crux of the problem. Similarly, the lecture notes are delimited by taking up just the kernel of the concept; this will be helpful in further reference and study.
This delimitation of lecture notes depends on every single student. Usually, one stops taking up notes with enough explanation.
