Popis: The development of digital technologies has led to new opportunities in higher education teaching, which, among other things, relate to the way of taking notes. Starting from the premise that note-taking is an important academic activity that enhances the learning process and outcomes, we were interested in what importance students attach to note-taking, as well as in what way the use of technology in the teaching process influences the way notes are taken. Accordingly, the aim of the research was to gain insight into students' perceptions and practices regarding note-taking in analogue and digital environments. In accordance with this, qualitative research was carried out with students, using the technique of in-depth interviews. The research sample consisted of 14 students of various scientific and artistic disciplines at the University of Novi Sad. Based on the set goal and the analyzed transcripts, the participants' answers were grouped into three categories: taking notes during lectures - analogue and digital environments; way of taking notes during lectures - analogue and digital environments; the meanings that students attribute to note-taking. In conclusion, it is emphasized that most of the research participants take notes, giving them different meanings, which speak in favor of their importance in the context of learning. Although the application of technology has a significant impact on note-taking, the majority of research participants still takes notes in the traditional way. An interesting finding is that in some cases the digital environment can lead to reduced motivation to take notes. Nevertheless, based on the obtained results, it is not possible to make generalizations. In order to gain a deeper insight into students' perceptions and practices regarding note-taking and to formulate specific guidelines for educational practice, further research is needed.
