Wait, did somebody teach you how to take notes? I had assumed that the OP was some sort of notes enthusiast, but if you're also fascinated with note taking, it seems unlikely that you would be so calm about finding somebody who shares your bizarre interest.
Nobody ever taught me how, really. Maybe that's why all the electrons in my modern physics notes are wearing little hats.
Not really, and I don't really have a big thing for note taking. I'm just good at it so I get asked to do it a lot at meetings I'm not chairing.
I tend to work things out on my own before I've worked out what other people have called them when they worked it out. Like a lot of my maths education was telling me stuff I already knew. Differentiation is a good example. I stumbled across it when I was looking for a formula to solve n factorial. I just didn't know notation (and hadn't thought about practice beyond equation solving). There are a lot of scientific / psychological things as well. I know them by observation. I just don't know what people called them.
I only stumbled upon mapping and Cornell because someone saw me doing it and mentioned the terms. I was just doing it because it made sense, not because I learned it. I'm still a bit anti-education that way. I don't need telling. I'd rather stumble into it. There are obvious exceptions.
What's your note taking style?
