Great questions here.

In short, the goal is never to copy notes despite the fact that for about 10 years in my classroom, that was pretty much all students did. A question to ask about note taking is what skills are students developing and are those skills what our goal is for students in math class?

The structure can come during / after consolidation as we make connections and summarize our work/ findings. This should be co-constructed by the facilitator and the students (not a copy job).
