For example, you can use a three-column system, where you write the source, the notes, and your comments in separate columns.
• - Use your own words to summarise or paraphrase the main points of the source, and include direct quotations only when necessary.
• Make sure you use quotation marks and page numbers for all quotations, and cite the source according to the referencing style required by your unit. - Write down your thoughts and comments about the information you have read or heard. You can comment on the strengths, weaknesses, assumptions, implications, or gaps of the source, and how it supports or challenges your own perspective or argument.
• - Review your notes regularly and use them to write your assignments or prepare for exams.
• Make sure you demonstrate your critical analysis in your assessments, and provide evidence and references to support your claims.
