As someone who works in ed tech these days, I’m kind of down for them as a study tool. For example, synthesizing notes and turning them into flashcards, practice tests, etc. I find that stuff to be suuuper handy if I’m trying to learn something.
But for cheating, yah, fuck that noise. A lot of classes are moving back to pencil and paper because of this, and I totally support that.
I feel like synthesising notes and turning them into flash cards how i learn things.
Exactly. Taking notes in class during a lecture. Copying something the instructor wrote on the board. This is all part of the learning process. The act of doing these things helps you learn.
The only skills or learnings I really seem to have retained from University are the ability to collect, and collate information and then apply it to a problem. The actual information collected and problems solved are lost to me now.
