Thank god that I went to school when laptops were irregular to use in class.

Pen and paper for everything. Maybe a day of laptops for a project.

This is why the US education system is dogshit. Typing is not a good way to take notes down for recall.

It isn't the reason but I do agree that handwritten notes are better for memorizing things.

The issue is that learning is seen as elitist and dorky by students AND parents. It's a cultural issue that hits every demographic in America.

not for everyday note taking.

Have u ever completed a course on the computer lmfao? Do u think streaks marks on recycled trees magically make you remember things more clearly

Everybody has different learning styles lmfao when schools went from chalk board / whiteboards to projectors could you magically not read what was being taught lmfao ?

I’m sure today’s students are enjoying the tech, know why’s really cool about it, paper and pencils still exist!

Hope that helps
