| dc.description.abstract | The present study aims to examine the effect of lecture note-taking methods on students’ academic achievement. This research is centered around three major objectives. First, it seeks to identify the main note-taking methods used by Master one Language and Communication students relying on Ratnaprabha & Shashikala’ (2017) framework of Notetaking. Second, it aims to discover students’ perception on the usefulness of note-taking methods on their academic achievement. Third, it attempts to determine whether note-taking has a positive or a negative impact on students’ academic outcomes. To achieve the cited objectives, a quasi-experimental research was conducted in the department of English at Mouloud Mammeri University of Tizi-Ouzou in addition to the use of mixed-method approach for data collection and data analysis. A questionnaire, a pretest, a posttest, and students’ lecture notes were the main data collection tools that were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. The findings of the questionnaire and students’ lecture notes revealed that Master one Language and Communication students use both the outline and the sentence note-taking methods which pertain to the linear note-taking style. In addition, it was disclosed that students perceive note-taking as an efficient technique that helps them to get better grades. Furthermore, the pretest and posttest findings showed that note-taking has a positive impact on students’ academic achievement. | |
