I was willing to entertain the idea they could do better. I guess the tests have to be written to leverage the skill.
That said, all things being equal kids who write notes by hand out-perform kids who type them. Even touch type them. So maybe the old ways are better in this specific brain-knowledge-competency-understanding forming space?
- cmdpint 2y agoI never was good at hand written notes, but I always outperformed my classmates on tests. Except for the one geometry class where the teacher gave me detention for not taking enough notes. Maybe I'm an exception.
- ggm 2y agoI'm unsure its safe to generalize in this space TBH. I think your story is familiar and enough seen it might be a counter-case to the argument. That said.. "learning styles" has mostly been debunked. In truth we don't entirely know why some people do amazingly well in maths and some don't. It's an interesting field of research (and the related field of "does well in compsci")
