THE IMPACT OF NOTE TAKING STRATEGY ON READING AND LISTENING COMPREHENSION IN THE FIELD OF TEACHING.

Abstract

Annotation. The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze the relations of study methods and note taking behavior, as well as to quantify the recorded points, written words, words per points according to a copy of the notes collected in the lecture by freshman psychology students of Royal Holloway and Bedford New Collage in Egham, UK. The methods are summarized and accompanied by an expanded discussion. The data collected from this investigation appears to be imprecise as only a half of each class provided lecture notes and students were not informed beforehand about the research. Thus, the thesis do really help to the effectiveness of components such as reading, listening, note taking and reviewing for someone learning or working in the field of teaching.
