- mieseratte 8y agoMy trick was to write the first word on each line, then the second, and so forth. I don't know if it was truly faster, but it sure seemed that way. Teachers also felt like that wasn't in the spirit of the punishment so it had the added fun of sticking it to "the man!"
- bungie4 8y agoI learned to write on a blackboard with both arms at the same time (an ability which has had me labeled a freak!). In this case, it worked great so long as nobody saw you do it, and, the phrase wasn't two long.
- exikyut 8y agoI knew simultaneous ambidextrousness wasn't that unusual. Still yet to tackle that one (after I learn ambidextrousness).
- chrisfinne 8y agomy high school math teacher could - write perfectly on the board while looking at the class - write a complete sentence starting from both ends meeting perfectly in the middle
- exikyut 8y agoMore things to aspire to with tentative hopefulness! :D (Said as someone whose hand-eye coordination could do with some serious tuning)
- carlmr 8y ago>My trick was to write the first word on each line, then the second, and so forth. You basically used Taylor-esque division of labor with yourself. Doing the same task a lot usually you become faster and more efficient at it. If you only have yourself it still might be faster if the task is repetitive enough and your context switching time is less than the time you save by writing one word so many times.
- KumarAseem 8y agoWe had a cool trick of attaching 4-5 pens/pencils together, and then writing. Took a little practice but then a big time save.
- HeyLaughingBoy 8y agoI was beginning to wonder if my friends and I were the only ones who figured this out :-)
- jama211 8y agoI made a couple of sheets in advance once, as my teacher always said to write 50 lines before you could leave for recess. The look on her face when I just pulled one out of my desk... to her credit she let me go!
