问HN：如何做笔记并从中学习？
我一直在尝试使用 Obsidian 进行笔记，但不知道该怎么做。假设我是一名天文学的新手，开始通过流行科学视频或短文了解这个主题，每当我遇到一个新的知识点时，我会这样做笔记：
```
天顶是夜空的中心，用于定位……等等。
```
也许还会加上一些链接到其他笔记，以便更好地参考。随着我收集的信息越来越多，我的知识库与维基百科的本地副本有什么区别呢？当然，它不是逐字逐句的复制（我总是尽量用自己的话），但这真的更好吗？
如果与维基百科相似不是问题，那么什么才算是学习呢？手头有一份维基百科的副本绝对不是学习。那么，我是每隔几天看看这些笔记就算了事，还是像上大学课程那样进行测试？
我在其他学科上也有类似的困惑。例如，几周前我想深入了解希腊神话，于是我读了斯蒂芬·弗莱的《神话》（顺便说一句，这是本很棒的书），但我同样不确定该如何做笔记。
我的直觉是以简短的要点形式简要解释书中每个子故事的情节，并详细描述书中提到的不同神祇之间的关系。我想这总比不做笔记要好，但我写的关系指南真的比网上成千上万的图形指南更好吗？
我以前知道如何为学校做笔记，因为我习惯了不同学科考试的结构，毕竟我当了十多年学生。但当涉及到没有考试或任何可衡量进展的自由学习时，我就不知道该如何做笔记/学习了。

So I've been trying to actually take notes with obsidian and I can't figure out how. let's say I am a newcomer to astronomy and I begin to look into the topic through popscience videos or short articles, every time I come across a new thing to learn I make a note as such:<p><pre><code> The zenith is the center of the night sky and it is used for orienting.. so on and so forth
</code></pre>
Maybe even throw in a couple of links to other notes for good mesure.<p>As I assemble more and more info, what differentiates my vault from a local-copy of wikipedia? I mean sure it's not a word for word copy ( I always try to use my own words as much as possible) but is it any better?<p>And if being similar to wikipedia isn't a problem, then what constitutes as learning? having a copy of wikipedia on-hand definitely is not learning. so do I take a look at these notes every couple of days and call it a day, or take a test on the subject as if it was a college course?<p>This happens for me with other subjects too, for example a couple of weeks ago I wanted to get really knowledgable about greek mythology so I picked up mythos by Stephan Fry (great book btw) and again I was unsure about how to take notes on it.<p>my intuition said to briefly explain in the form of short bullet points the plot point of each sub story in the book as well as detailing the relationships between different gods mentioned in the book. I guess that's better that not taking notes at all, but is my written relationship guide really better then the 10s of graphical ones available online?<p>I used to know how to take notes for school because I got used to the structure of exams in different subjects thanks to the decade+ being a student but when it comes to free-form learning where there isn't a test or any tangible way to mesure progress I lose sight of how to take notes/learn
