Detailed description
Note-taking is part of the learning process. Students take short notes in a way that they will remember later in the lesson. It was observed that students who took short reminder notes achieved more successful results than students who took detailed notes. In the same way, the rate of remembering the subject matter of the students who took notes was approximately 2 times higher than those who did not take notes. In another study, note-taking skills ranked second among the skills that students need to improve. There are studies showing that note-taking improves academic performance. For this, it is also necessary for students to improve their listening skills. Although studies have revealed that Cornell note-taking technique has positive effects, there are very limited studies in the literature on the use of Cornell note-taking technique in nursing students. This study was planned to evaluate the effect of Cornell note-taking technique on knowledge level, learning motivation and listening skills in nursing students. It is thought that Cornell note-taking technique can be used for all nursing students and can make the learning process more enjoyable, increase participation in lessons, increase motivation, and positively affect the level of listening and success.
