Listening and speaking skills are crucial to your success at university. When you attend lectures, strong listening skills are essential. Not only will you be listening to your professors speak about abstract, complex concepts, you will also need to take effective notes that summarize and help you learn the material.
Effective listening in lectures includes:
Evaluating information: While listening, you need to be able to identify which parts are important to write down. You should not try to write every word the professor says, but summarize key points in your own words.
Organizing information: Even as you listen to the lecture the first time, you need to capture the relationships between the ideas/concepts that are being presented. Completing assigned readings before your lectures can help with this.
