[quote=Anonymous][quote]When I went to law school several years back, I would say 99% of the students used laptops to take notes. I was one of them. However, half of the 99% were online shopping, IM'ing, playing solitaire, and basically not paying attention. These were the same students who did not do so well come exam time. I happened to be disciplined enough to actually take notes using my laptop and generally avoided distractions. If law students cannot resist the urge for a measly hour to IM their friend sitting next to them during lecture, I doubt that middle school kids are disciplined enough to do so.[/quote] I have terrible handwriting and type much faster than I write. In certain classes, taking notes on the computer is way easier. I would also hazard a guess that people who take paper notes doodle, daydream, whisper tot heir friend, zone out, doodle, and don't pay attention, and if you want to be distracted, you'll find a way to be distracted.[/quote]
