The study into ancient artifacts originated from the age of King Zhen (真) in the Song Dynasty. The research by Liu Chang and Ouyang Xiu in the age of King Ren (仁) opened the fashion for epigraphy collection and appreciation to ancient artifacts. The academic notes in the Song Dynasty mainly discussed the context of three levels. Firstly, the collection of ancient artifacts. For example, Nenggai Zhaiwanlu of Wu Zeng and Yanxia Fangyan of Ye Mengde all described the collection of ancient artifacts in the Qin and Han dynasties. Secondly, historical research on epigraphy. For example, Mozhuang Manlu of Zhang Bangji and Rongzhai Suibi of Hong Mai all used the epigraphy and stone inscriptions to verify the history of ancient artifacts. Thirdly, the textual research on epigraphy such as Guangchuan Shuba of Dong You, Dongguan Yu lu of Huang Bosi. They all recorded the comments on the advantages and disadvantages of inscription or epigraphy while it also contained the comments on the characteristics of Chinese calligraphy art. The stone inscriptions stored in the academic notes of the Song Dynasty then become an important reference to studies on the Epigraphy of Song Dynasty, which not only provides an important proof for the construction of calligraphy or epigraphic history in the Song Dynasty but also expands the academic horizon for the research on epigraphy in the later generations that holds academic and historical significance.

This study explored the effects of note-taking training on Korean college students’ notes during academic English listening tests. A total of 61 college students were randomly assigned to two different groups: Group A that later received training in note-taking strategy and Group B that did not. Group A received note-taking strategy training on three separate times, totaling 60 minutes (30 minutes, 15 minutes, and 15 minutes) that spread out over two months. The two groups took listening tests before and after Group A was trained. The results showed the positive effects of the notetaking training in relation with the groups’ note-taking behaviors. After training, the trained group used more and frequent notes whereas the untrained group’s number of notes decreased. Individual students who drastically increased the number of notes after training (in Test II) showed more systemic framework of notes for Test II than before training (in Test I). The present study is meaningful in that it utilized the different analyzing methods on the quality of notes compared with previous studies.

The taboo system in the Song Dynasty was very strict, correspondingly, the academic notes of Scholars in the Song Dynasty also have a lot of taboo studies. These taboo studies have recorded a wealth of taboo materials of the past generation, which has high data value. Some of them are also good at textual research, and thus benefit the study of the later periods.But most of these studies Only record taboo materials and lack of innovation. Scholars are good at the induction of taboo materials and ignores the application research and theory construction of taboo. The reasons of taboo studies in the Song Dynasty have developed include cultural environment, the severity of the taboo in the Song Dynasty,and the adaptability between the notes genre and the characteristics of the Scholars’ taboo studies.
