4. Writing something down helps you
remember it

D. A few more tips:
1. Date your notes! Number your pages!

3. Don’t fill every space. (Might add later)
4. If you miss something, don’t stop class
a. Write key words
b. Leave space, and continue note-taking
c. Get the notes from a friend (or teacher) later

F. Receiver Errors:
Why are we bad at listening?
1. It’s a physical activity & requires work
a) (Increased pulse, heartrate, bp, etc)
b) You have to get practice & build up
2. “Speed Gap”
a) Speaking: 150 wpm
b) Listening: 400-500 wpm
3. Competition for attention (‘net, phones…)
4. “Know it all” attitude
5. Past bias - What we think they will say…
