Handwriting notes in class might seem like an anachronism as smartphones and other digital technology subsume every aspect of learning across schools and universities. But a steady stream of research continues to suggest that taking notes the traditional way—with pen and paper or even stylus and tablet—is still the best way to learn, especially for young children.
Despite already agreeing with the article before further reading it, the article has further convinced me that hand writing notes is a better method of notation than typing. Throughout the article it makes reference to the research and researchers, strengthening their argument and as well as quoting an outside professional from a separate field strengthening the credibility of the article which further convinces me.
