Making the Most Out of Reading Newspapers

How to Make Notes while reading a newspaper?

Please note that not everything needs to be covered in a newspaper. You need to filter and focus on those newspaper articles which will be important in your upcoming exams. You have to be selective and don’t have to waste time on articles that are not important thereby making the most of your precious time. Below we are providing the kind of news you should read while going through a newspaper. Selecting a good newspaper is equally important. You can pick either The Hindu or The Indian Express.

When you read a newspaper, keep a pen and notebook handy and highlight all the articles in the newspaper which belong to either of the below categories:

  • News of national importance
  • News of international importance
  • Economic news
  • Sports news
  • News related to science & technology

Once you are done with highlighting the relevant news, you need to analyze and summarize each article. Write the below in your notebook for each of the highlighted articles:

  • A quick summary of the news (what happened)
  • Where (affected geographical locations)
  • When (timeline of the news)
  • Why (Reason it happened; root cause analysis)
  • Facts & Figures (important data related to the news)
