jot down notes about what the speaker is saying.

Reason: active listening and note‑taking help you remember the speaker's main claims, evidence, assumptions, and any weaknesses you can rebut later. Avoid interrupting or trying to distract; don’t spend the time only visualizing your victory or writing a full counterclaim while they’re speaking—focus on understanding so your response is accurate and effective.
