Engineering Professor here. I’ve often debated whether to give my students copies of my notes, or just require them to take notes in classes. There are no textbooks that cover what I want to teach them. Practically speaking, if I give out the notes, then a significant number of the students won’t attend class. It struck me after your video, what I could do is give out notes on part of the information, ask them to take notes on the rest of the information in class, and then give them an assignment to “make” notes in the way you are describing. Nice video!
The problem with note-taking is that it takes a lot of time. When I have a full-time job, it's hard to manage time for reading and taking notes. But thank you for your advice and I will try it 😁
It's more time-consuming in the short-term but saves you a lot of time later on when you consider the benefits of having learned things better initially.
Note-taking is a vehicle for deep and careful thinking. It shouldn't add any more strain to your schedule. If it has to be an addition, it is most likely to be a symptom of a problem. Cal Newport's book *Deep Work* could be a pledge for note-taking with just a slight re-write. Short: The time need ot note-taking is a subset of the time need of deep work.
It might be because you haven't found a system that matches your note-taking style! Once you find a good system that's naturally embedded in your existing workflows then it should feel effortless :)
