How do you (would you, did you) take your notes in college?
When I sat down to revise my notes, part of that revision was to type them up in Emacs with org-mode, using embedded LaTeX for any notation that was not natively supported in org-mode. I would frequently already have typed notes from my readings, and I could integrate the lecture notes with these. I would render to PDF and print these out for further study away from the computer.
Part of the reason for this is that I found having access to the Internet and my collection of computer games was distracting when I was trying to study. Being able to print out the notes, share them with friends, study without having to haul around a laptop, find power, or navigate with a keyboard in the silent study floor of the library was important.
For those that want to try this without the manual and painful installation process I found that pandocker[1] supports this template.
For my usecase, I started from default pandoc+xelatex output and customized step by step searching on stackoverflow/tex.stackexchange for things like font, page size, link color, styling inline code, chapter breaks, bullet styling, pdf properties, etc [1]
