This thesis argues that note-taking employing various techniques and the synthesis of ideas from multiple sources constitute a fundamental yet often inadequately taught academic practice. The study situates note-taking within the conceptual framework of Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC), highlighting its transdisciplinary nature and its dual function in facilitating knowledge acquisition and developing written expression skills. Furthermore, the thesis identifies a critical temporal constraint: the student's writing speed (0.3–0.4 words per second) is significantly lower than the lecturer's speaking rate (2–3 words per second), which renders verbatim transcription practically impossible. Consequently, students develop compensatory strategies, including abbreviation and apocope (word-end clipping), and rely on discourse markers such as board writing, dictation mode, headings, and macro-textual planning indicators (e.g., “firstly/secondly”). In conclusion, the thesis challenges minimalist conceptions of note-taking and advocates for its recognition as a complex, multidimensional cognitive tool essential for transforming raw information into usable, applicable knowledge.
