The Notetaking for Research-Driven Writing Workshop shares various notetaking strategies with participants, asking them to try several during the workshop. Participants will be asked to practice with both model materials and their own research sources. Methods include annotating reading, creating double-entry journals, and making notecards. Workshop can be delivered via Zoom.

Resources: Facilitators will need access to a computer-connected projector.

When to schedule: Writers should have collected at least a few sources for their research-driven writing before the workshop. They will be asked to take notes from these sources during the workshop. Writers should have access to computers as well as a paper notebook, loose-leaf paper, or notecards.

Length: 45-60 minutes
