Entry 5:Advantages and disadvantages of Tape recording

When  you are having a lecture or seminar, it is very important to take all information that you hear, because it can be useful in preraring for the tests and passing exams.Many students use such way of note taking as tape recording.  While you are sitting at the desk your tape recorder takes all information. Some additional material can also be taken  on the tape and can be useful in remembering and revising. Also, when you are sitting at home you can regulate the volume of the sound  and listen to the voice of the teacher as many times as you like. To add, when you're making a presentation you can take the information that the teacher have said and use it in your work as the additional material. However, sometimes this kind of  note taking can cause many problems. If the lecture room is a very noisy place, lots of sounds will spoil your records.Also, when you're taking tape records your attention falls on everything: your friends, mobile phone, but not on the lecture. Some students forget about the important eye contact and just not concentrate on what they realy need. And it is very bad! To  finish, I'd like to give a piece of advice to the students :be very careful in taking notes in that way. Don't forget about your own memory! Ba attentive and develope your memory and in the future you'll have a big success.

  1. I think that tape recorder is not so good and comfortable, because it is double work))))You listen to a lecture and then go home and listen to tape again))))
