Effective Recording of Research Data

In order to process information correctly and in future to recollect the data previously seen, one must find an effective way to interpret it. Effective recording of research data or note taking is incredibly important when initialising memory recollection, this is to say in order to correctly remember facts or data previously told one must correctly record the information hence effective recording of research data.
There are two styles by which a person operates and that is either through passive learning or active learning.
Passive learning  is the most inactive as it weighs down a great responsibility of a persons character, they become unmotivated, unchanged by what they have learnt and have no end goal to what path they are currently on in life.
Active learning is quite the opposite by which a person understands fully their reasons for studying and will go the extra mile to ensure they get as much as they can out of the course though extra studying and using outside resources.
These styles of learning are influenced heavily by note taking and the correlation between both is key, taking notes focuses attention, expands upon the memory and ensures a person is prepared for work or assignments.  The correct structure of notes is also key indefinitely identifying when the notes were taken such as recording by date, a logical structure to the notes is key and also highlighted words and specific phrases help the mind understand what is what.
Finally all notes should be fully revised and re read to ensure the memory stores the information and allows the person to recollect what they need.
