Step 4. Highlight the most important information
If you can't write in your textbook, write notes on a small piece of paper. Read them for reinforcement in your mind.

Step 5. Write short, concise notes
Write in bright colors and try to use a code for the keywords: for example, "Reaction Time" might change to "TR", to make it easier to remember.

Step 6. Make sure your writing is large, clear and well spaced
If your handwriting is small, you will not be able to read it easily and you will not be able to decipher it if it is too thick. Writing clearly will allow you to easily read your notes.
