Write a paragraph explaining how someone can take active notes to prepare for a collaborative discussion.(4 points)
Taking active notes is an effective way to prepare for a collaborative discussion. When taking notes, the individual should focus on key ideas, important details, and connections between what is being discussed. To achieve active notes, you should use symbols and abbreviations to summarize information more efficiently. Additionally, color-coding your notes can be a good technique to easily identify different points for discussion. Before the collaborative discussion, you should review your notes and prepare questions or ideas on what information should be discussed. These notes can be used as a guide to keep on track with the focus of the discussion, and can help the individual engage with the discussion more effectively.
