Steps to taking good research notes
- Read through the information source a couple of times until you are able to verbally summarize the author's main point(s) without looking back at the source.
- On a separate piece of paper or note-card, write down these main points in your own words.
- The final step is to compare your notes to the text. Ensure that your notes paraphrase and/or summarize the author's main points.
