Paper seems more real you know what I mean? though research is easier in the computer studying in paper still feels like you get more information.
Paper. I usually hand-write notes, then type them up, then print them out.
Just a question: why do you make so many threads about study techniques but never respond to any of them? What’s the point? If you’re having issues studying, why don’t you make a thread about that, specific to your issues and concerns?
^this.
@PharmacyStudent it’s good to ask questions but it seems like you’re just “polling” around. As for study techniques such as paper vs. computer, try both and see which one fits best for you.
I think that paper is the beat option without any doubt. I am not a student that gets distracted easily but with a computer you can do a lot of things and it is a temptation. Thus, I prefer paper because it feels more real and if you have forgot something you can check it quickly. Moreover I am a very visual person an when everything is in paper is better to me because it helps me to make a structure of the information in my mind.
I prefer paper.
If printing wasn’t so expensive (I have a 400 page allowance at my university that I always end up using up by mid-semester and after that it’s 10c a page) I’d print literally everything. When I study for major exams, I type up my handwritten notes and print them out so I can mark them up, write comments, highlight, etc.
Computer. My handwriting is too illegible for me to even read my own notes.
Paper. It helps me concentrate
