      To each their own I supposed. But I firmly believe you retain more knowledge, the more senses that you use when learning.

      If I’m reading the material (sight), highlighting the notes (touch), and listenting to the prof (sound), I’m triggering more synapses and as a result hold more of the information in.

      Letting an A.I. summarize it for you, or just recording in on a laptop voice-to-text while zoning out for the hour of that class, is completely useless because you don’t actually learn anything except how to ask the computer for the answer.

        That’s hella of an assumption of what i do(and other people do) lol;

        I just don’t want to write every note by hand (Dysgraphia and dysorthography don’t help) and have to use a public device to write my notes, schemes etc etc

          I was using “you” in the royal-sense; as in “anyone” or “oneself”. Didn’t mean to imply that you specificially do that. I apologize if it came across that way.
