Taking Notes while Studying a Poem – making poetry simpler to understand – tips by Alok Mishra

Taking notes is an essential part of a student's life. In the classroom, a seminar, a workshop, while reading a book, listening to an online lecture, or thinking something randomly, ideas worth noting can knock without notice. Are we always ready? In this article, I will share the best methods students of English literature can use to take meaningful, distinguishable, reusable, easily searchable, and helpful notes. Students of literature in any language may find this article helpful as well. Quick takeaway: Notes are not some random lines, words, facts, or items we write in our notebooks (or on the books).

Now, we will discuss the art of taking notes while interacting with different kinds of text – poetry, novels, plays, essays, letters, critical writings, and research papers.
