I would also say to help improve note-taking, work on listening skills! In grades 6-9, every single morning, we listened to the news for 2 minutes and had a brief quiz following. It is incredible how much active listening affects your ability to take notes. If you can learn to pick out the key parts, it can help you streamline your notes (and refine your note-taking process). From almost a decade of tutoring history students, one of the most common problems I see is students trying to write down absolutely every word said- not going to help in the long run! Also, re-writing notes helps, as you are reviewing AND deciding "Okay, is this crucial?". I would certainly say that just writes notes as normal, and THEN use the Cornell system for review/rewrites.
