• Developed in 1949 at Cornell
University by Walter Pauk.
• Designed in response to frustration
over student test scores.

as a test study guide.

as the preferred note taking method.
Cornell note Format
• Cornell notes use a
certain format
consisting of three
parts.
• The main parts of a
Cornell note page are
the keywords, the
notes, and the
summary.

Taking Notes
• First, read a section of
the text and write down
important things to know
such as dates, events, or
people.
• Then, write a note about
what you read and then
write a keyword,
something that would
remind you of what you
read.

Writing a Summary
• When you have
finished taking all of
your notes, write a
summary of the notes
in the bottom section
of the page.
• The summary does
not have to be too
long, maybe just one
or two sentences.

Hints & Tips
• Try not to make a note out of everything
you read. Only put what is relevant or
important and put them into concise notes.
• Put names, dates, and places and
describe them.
• Try to keep your keyword one word and as
close as a summary for your note.
• Read & Take Cornell Notes over: “The
Spread of Epidemic Disease” pp. 243244 AP World Textbook
• Exchange & Compare notes with a
partner.
• Talk about what you wrote and why.
• Look for gaps & missed info.
• Both partners should feel free to add to
their notes.
• After comparing notes, continue with
“China after the Han Dynasty” through
“The Fall of the Roman Empire” pp. 244252.
• NOTEBOOK CHECK NEXT WEEK!!!
• Check the website for the textbook pages if you
don’t finish in-class.

• “St. Cyprian on Epidemic Disease in the Roman

To what extent do you think St. Cyprian was effective
in his efforts to bring inherited Christian teachings to
bear on the unprecedented conditions he and his
followers faced?
