Art of Taking Notes

In many schools and institutions today, it seems that the old art of taking notes is gradually dying. This can be attributed to various reasons, mainly that students feel that they can just browse through the Internet later as to what their teachers are discussing. This is an unfortunate reality because there are always nuances and particular perspectives that can come from nobody else but their teachers. More than that, taking down notes hastens various skills in students such as organisation, listening, conceptualising and understanding. These are vital skills that can have wide applications later in life. Sad to say, many students are taking notes no more because they deem it cool that way.
