We have to take noted what ingredients to use , how to make , how long to cook and etc. But noted taking is an most important part of the life of student . There are two main reasons why note-taking is important :
- When you are reading or listening, taking notes helps you concentrate. In order to take notes - to write something sensible you must understand the text. As listening and reading are interactive tasks, taking notes help you make sense of the text. Taking notes does not mean writing down every word you hear; you need to actively decide what is important and how is related to what you have already written.
- Notes help you to maintain a permanent record of what you have read or listened to. This is useful when revising in the future for examinations or other reasons.

Use the main notes section to take notes during class.

write down things you’ll need to remember and a prompt for each. You can also
use this section for vocabulary words and study questions.
