What did you use to record lectures?

I hope to start a 10 month LPN program in August. I have seen multiple posts about tips for new students. In almost all of these posts I see "Record your lectures." I was just wondering if anyone had a specific device or way of recording/listening that really worked well for them? Thanks in advance!

Does your program have the lectures/powerpoints available online? We found that to be a lifesaver! I would download the slides in "handout" format 3 per page with a space for notes. I could take my notes beside each slide. I agree that taping the lectures would be difficult since you're going to be in class for so many hours the commute to and from school would only allow you to review a portion of each day's lectures. Some of my classmates used their tablets or laptops to take notes on the fly during lectures but I preferred the hand-written ones I took on my PowerPoint printouts. Good luck!

Thanks, @PharmGuy. You're right. I honestly hadn't thought of that. Hopefully there will be power points available to print.

I started a thread where one was recommended. I can't link it from my phone
