Column Note Taking Basic Format Below is the basic layout you can use for column notes. Remember that the left side column is used to organize the notes you take in the right side column. Main Idea - Smaller idea - Smaller idea - Detail - Smaller idea - Detail Main Idea - Smaller idea - Detail - Detail - Smaller idea - Smaller idea Vocab word = Definition - On this side you can write down the main idea for a group of notes you wrote in the right column - On this side you can write down ideas as you find them and think they are important - You can skip spaces between ideas if you think they might belong to different larger ideas - You can also use this space for vocab words or added notes to yourself Example using 1.1 of World Studies: Medieval Times to Today Notice in my example that I highlighted certain pieces in colors. The red and blue titles are the red and blue titles from the book that I used to guide my note-taking. Using those titles as a guide, I then wrote down information I thought was important from those sections. Section 1.1: The Byzantine Empire Constantinople at a Crossroads - Constantinople = capital of the Byzantine Empire (pg. 10) - Christian Byzantines and Muslim Arabs fought over the Middle East after the Roman Empire failed THERE’S MORE ON THE NEXT PAGE!!! Constantine and his Capital - Constantine = Emperor of Roman Empire starting in 306 AD - Constantine became Christian and stopped persecution of Christians - Constantine renamed Byzantium to Constantinople and made it the capital of his empire - Later the empire split into Eastern and Western halves. The Eastern half was stronger because of its military and trade. Trade - Constantinople was built near a lot of roads and water passages - Bosporus strait = a narrow body of water that connected the Black Sea and Mediterranean Sea; next to Constantinople; lots of trade went through - Constantinople got trades from Russia, Egypt, and Asia - Taxed traded items and made money from it Fall of the Western Empire - Germans invaded and took over by 476 AD Age of Justinian Emperor Justinian - Rule started in 527 - Born to a poor family - Listened to ideas from any person (even peasants) Justinian’s Code - J’s Code was an organized collection and explanation of Roma laws for use by the Byzantine Empire; was the basis for legal systems of modern countries - Before J’s Code, laws were disorganized and didn’t make any sense Byzantine Culture - Byzantines blended Greek, Roman, and Christian cultures THERE’S MORE ON THE NEXT PAGE!!! Empire’s Later Years - Empire declined after Justinian died in 565 and new emperor’s had to fight wars against Persians, Turks, Arabs, and Germanic groups A Religious Dispute - Christianity was practiced differently in Byzantine and the Byzantine Christians rejected the authority of the pope, who lead the Roman church - Byzantine church used greek language while the Roman church used Latin language - Byzantine emperor banned the use of icons of saints, which went against the pope. The pope banished the emperor from the church and caused a split between the two groups of Christians (Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox) - Schism = split A Second Golden Age - The empire was doing well again from 900 to mid-1000s - Basil II was the best emperor since Justinian Fall of Constantinople - Byzantine Empire got into wars with Turks, Europeans, and Christian Crusaders - Constantinople fell to the Turks, who renamed it Istanbul and it became the capital of the Ottoman Empire
