How to process information from lectures

In processing information from lectures there are four things you need to know. You need to know have to gather the information giving, learn how to analyze the information giving, create new ideas with that information, and acting out on that information. Something else that can help it is what I like to call the RQR3S; and what this stands for is record, question, recite, reflect, review, and summarize. In order for you to learn anything you have to record it. Record basically means write or type notes the teacher talks about or has giving. After recording the notes ask questions about them. Most teachers would be more than happy to answer your question. Remember know question is a dumb question. After you question the teacher you need to recite what was giving. This is a step to help you remember what was said in class and is use to help you remember. Once you have recited the information giving, now is the time to reflect. Reflecting is just taking your time to think about what all you have learned. Next is the time to review. Reviewing is just going back over all the steps you have went through. Last but not less, is summarizing. Summarizing is just to write a short statement about what you have went over and learned. All theses steps seems like much work, but once you do it and make it routine it will be of great help to you and your future habits of processing information from lectures.
