Handwritten note taking is just better for retaining information. Why would you move to something inferior in sixth grade?

Doing calculations on paper is better for arithmetics. But a calculator is better than humans at that and at some point you need to move on from long division and box multiplication.

Same here.

Sure, we have machines to do arithmetic for us. It doesn’t matter if the machine takes that over. But handwritten notes are better for learning. I’d like to keep learning.
