Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting is a simple and effective notetaking program that is essential to student academic success. Notetaking is a major component in learning and understanding how to recognize and identify main ideas, key facts and details. Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting will also teach the student how to record notes in various formats and how to utilize notetaking when studying or reviewing for an exam. Worksheets and practices are included in many of the chapters. What makes Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting different from other notetaking curriculums is that it teaches a form of shorthand to notetaking. They will also be guided through developing their own, personal speedwriting system. Included at the back of the book is an extensive, alphabetized catalog of Commonly Used Words and Their Speedwriting Abbreviations. Taking effective notes, whether by hand or on a computer/tablet, helps the student to retain information on what has been said or written down long after the lecture or classroom lesson is over. Whether you are taking notes from a book, for research, from a lecture, from a recording or from media/online resources, Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting will give you the tools to retain information and master the skill of notetaking.
Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting is one of the only books that easily and gently guides students through the ups and downs of deciding which information is relevant and which is not. The fact that speedwriting is also incorporated into the program allows the student to write quickly and effectively. -- K. Fong, high school English instructor The program encourages students to improve their research skills and allows them to retain what they have read. It also teaches them to develop strategies to effective notetaking and speedwriting from lectures, social media and more. I am a high school Study Skills instructor and the information provided by Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting has become an invaluable tool for my students. -- J. Franscesconi, high school English and study skills instructor The Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting program is exactly what I have been looking for to accompany my middle school Study Skills curriculum. This is the age where students begin to learn how to take notes - comprehensive notes - efficiently and effectively. This textbook is easy to understand and allows the student the tools for success. -- B. Henneberry, middle school study skills and English instructor Notetaking is a skill that needs to be learned and developed. Simply Notetaking and Speedwriting is a curriculum that simplifies the drudgery of taking notes. Whether the notes are from a textbook or a lecture, I have found improvement within my students' level of comprehension and recall of information. The speedwriting section of the text has been an immense help for my class as they have learned to create and use their own style of shorthand. I highly recommend this program for all teachers as it will increase your students' understanding of how to take effective notes regardless of the course. -- F. Lewis, high school English instructor, San Francisco, CA
