Note Taking tips for ICD-10

I recently started Module III and I am currently studying ICD-10. I'm looking to start taking some notes and was wondering if anyone has any good tips. I'm not sure if it would be best to add with a pencil some of the guidelines stated in my own words to various sections in the tabular so I can refer to them later.

Thank you :-)

It seems to me that might get confusing when you get to Module IV and have to follow the inpatient guidelines which may differ, since the ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used with both inpatient and outpatient coding.  I look forward to seeing how others weigh in on this!

I do have some penciled in notes within the guidelines themselves, but I do not have anything extra written in the tabular section.
