Even when technology is taking over, why is taking hand written notes still an evergreen idea?
Revisiting the past years and comparing it to the current times makes us realize that one of the many things that we are missing out on is the practice of taking hand written notes. Here are 6 ways as to how the old practice of having a notebook by your side in class, be it physical or online – still has superiority over digital note taking
Taking notes is making memories.
Nostalgia washes over us when we come across our note books from a few years ago? Each page reminds us of a story. That shaky writing because you were nervous of an upcoming presentation; those stretched letters with a few lines here and there to indicate sleep threatened to overpower and the meticulous, doodle-less pages where you were extremely invested in the lesson. Hand written notes with weirdly spelt words and no auto corrects, and a few doodles here and there – they are a memory worth cherishing!
Notes keep you focused.
As many students enrolled in online classes will tell you, studying on a laptop is synonymous to distractions. On the other hand, having a notebook to take notes does not have the option of multiple tabs and occasional pop ups which can be a definite attention influencer.
Reduces eye strains.
Staring at a computer screen for hours has also affected our students with increasing headaches and eye strains, while taking notes intermittently on a notebook will reduce screen time.
They are safer and well preserved.
There are thin chances of a notebook getting corrupt, deleted or being drained out of battery when needed. A note book is far more portable, safer and healthier to use as compared to their digital counterparts.
You remember what you write
Writing compared to typing is a way to remember more efficiently. We shape out each letter and are more conscious considering that we don’t have an option of backspaces or autocorrects. This ensures that we are more attentive and results in better memory.
You get to choose where to take notes.
Without restrictions, we have the liberty of using funky, not-very-schoolish notebooks too. You can buy diaries or journals that suit your unique taste and make the task of jotting down information interesting and exciting!
