I actually started medical school doing paper notes. However, it was difficult to keep up with the number of notes I needed to write and all the resources. Plus, given the amount I was writing and also needing to print paperwork and handouts, I actually ended up filling 2 3 inch binders in just 1 semester with my paper notes and I didn't even write all my class notes as I should have. Following semester I switched to an iPad Pro. I had been told from the beginning to get one, that it would make my studies easier but I didn't listen and ended up regretting it. For the amount of work I was doing, the iPad was much better. I could import information which meant I didn't have to write everything and could also easily add pictures to my notes. Plus I was no longer carrying around 2 large binders and my back was very happy about that. The only downside is actually the battery for the Apple Pencil, not the iPad itself. I can charge the iPad while still using it but when the Apple pencil runs out of battery I have to stop and wait for it to charge which is annoying. For this, I would recommend having a backup stylus like the Logitec crayon which is made to work with the iPad specifically and has most of the features of the Apple pencil but any writing stylus for iPad should work fine since you'll only be using it for a short time.

[@emilystudying]

thanks for the great advice karim!

[@ChocoChiharu]

im not sure if you would consider switching to android, but the Samsung s6 lite has a pen that doesn't require charging! maybe it's the same for other s pens :)

I feel like taking handwritten notes is better than typing notes because writing helps you memorize better but writing on the iPad Pro is better than handwriting notes because it’s easier to do things on there.

[@emilystudying]

agreed!

[@lambykin842]

They’re basically the same thing, you will remember the notes on your iPad because you wrote it, and writing it by hand helps you remember. Memorization wise they are the same. It’s only for typing when you dont remember things as much. :)

[@studynchill2929]

Yep, which is why I never type notes.

Nursing student here! The amount of pages of lectures I've had to print out thus far is actually insane, which is my main reason for wanting to switch over to virtual notes. On top of that, I'm very much tired of lugging a huge 2 inch binder filled to the brim even before the end of the semester! I will be getting an ipad pro very soon and I am very much looking forward to it because I'm just so tired of relying on printing out the lectures, ESPECIALLY if I've already printed out a lecture, and my professor's lecture doesn't match up with the one they gave us. This way, instead of killing a whole other tree printing out the updated lecture, I could just pull it up digitally. I also love the idea of being able to easily change my notes how I please without having to worry about it not looking neat. :)

[@emilystudying]

Yes!!! Totally agree, there are so many PowerPoint slides in uni 😩

[@charlizeriv2001]

Update: got my iPad Pro 2 days ago and I am in LOVE with doing notes on it 😍

[@neo22501]

the way to learn isn't to write the notes and try to memorize them later on. You read a chapter, close the book, and then try to recall everything you read. The next day, or however often, you grab a new piece of paper, and again try to recall what you learned and rewrite them again. The most important thing is to recall the information from your head. Re-reading beautifully written notes does not help over the long term. You should always try to rewrite your notes when you are studying.

[@dancingddh8063]

Yea that’s the most effective method. I usually wake up early on the day of the exam and recall my notes, rewriting it

[@jemima2222]

exactly. active recall is literally the best study technique ever. its helped me soo much on tests

[@folkwh0re]

There’s many different learning/recalling/memorising methods so you can choose what works best for you

[@pump1180]

I find actually explaining what you’ve learnt is more efficient cause not only can you remember the key terms and definition but you can explain them and give examples which shows a deeper level of understanding then simply memorising and recalling

[@Chiku_Sharma7]

That's called FEYNMAN METHOD

I got my ipad pro for college and since I have started I haven't gone back to paper... Which I appreciate bcs I wasted SO much paper... Like crazy, bcs I had to print all my class materials, then I use to redo my notes so that was a lot of waste, with the Ipad I don't have to print anything bcs I carry it with me at all times, also I believe that if we look at it from now to three years we would spend less money with an Ipad than with paper, stationary, tint for the printer, backpacks, etc

The way I kind of make do with my digital vs handwritten dilemma is that my school work goes in my iPad, while my planning and journaling is on paper. I really did try to do all paper, but I hate planning digitally, for some reason. As much as I like my electronics, I need a bit of paper in my life xD

[@dangoflower751]

I agree, it does depend on what works for you! For me, I'd like to write down all the nitty gritty stuff on an ipad while I write down more significant points on a notebook. Mostly cause looking at one thing for too long (in this case, a screen) stresses me out. In the times I want to take a break from my devices but still have to study, it helps to have a notebook handy-dandy!

Such wonderful ideas and suggestions. My ipad is almost 8 years old and it really is time to update it...although it is still functional there are so many things it can't do nowadays. Is there a specific version recommended for notes like you are doing? I am not attending school but feel a good notes app like what I am seeing would be so beneficial for so many aspects of my life and continual learning for my brain. I will be updating the ipad within the next couple of weeks (waiting on the money lol). I am not really in need of an expensive one but need to know what space requirements you'd recommend at the minimum with using apps like you used in this. Your recommendations would definitely be considered.

Oh, thank you. I have seven note-taking apps installed - so yeah, distraction. As a writer/editor since 1972 I'm loving the iPad because it removes a big wall that I would otherwise have to climb over - turn on computer...or scribble on paper and transcribe later. I've settled on Nebo for handwriting and Drafts for converting to text plus fast keyboard-only editing using custom shortcuts I learned in 1983 with WordStar (what a thrill).

[@ayde92829]

I totally agree with you on most things: except for the environmental impact. One of the biggest impacts on the environment by using an I-pad is actually that electricity use of servers, and charging, and web hosting. All these components use electricity, which if you live in a country like the US or China: is produced through coal. There are actually stricter regulations on tech recycling since the components are more valuable, and many countries are starting to take up dismantling these devices as a business, and the resale market is pretty thriving. This impact is def lessened if you get an Ipad Pro, as the technology and worth of that object is retained for far longer than the budget option. Paper, however, uses various chemical processes depending on whether it's hot pressed or cold pressed. Most writing paper uses more of these chemicals in order to reduce the tooth or bumps (unlike something like watercolor paper). In addition to this, depending on the paper, it is NOT recycled. Between 63 and 67 percent of paper is recycled at the end of the day. That's just a little more than Half. The more times something is recycled, the thinner the cellulose becomes. Paper items have about 2 to 7 reprocessing before unusability: and that's not accounting for paper that is not collected. Point: paper recycling and production using heavy chemicals and bleach, it accounts for 37 percent of all felled trees. Paper recycling uses more energy than an ipad to produce and reuse by a lot. 15 percent of all municipal waste is non recyclable paper: and it is laden with chemicals and plastic sheeting. All and all: when we use things like paper take-out containers, it is not eco-friendly. All and all: If we have a suitcase full of paper for notes, reports, and print-outs at the end of our schooling: your environmental impact is higher than if you were to use an electronic device.

so from watching this, i concluded that i will take notes on real paper. i am in grade 6, so i dont need to take notes. we have a book which includes question we have to answer in the book. its not like textbooks we have to annotate. i just take notes for exams so i remember things better. plus, the ipads produce harmful rays and my mom does not let me stay on my ipad for long. also, i ordered a bunch of stationary so i dont want that to go to waste. so, when i do need to take notes like you, it will be a few years from now, so i will need to upgrade my 7th gen ipad to another one, and i’ll take a bigger screen version.

[@mrsbrightside.]

I've always hated taking handwritten notes, I felt so guilty about all the paper waste, so much so that I could never convince myself to print out notes,which ended up hindering me later on (shocker, I know). Recently I've switched over so digital and I am in LOVE-when I tell you I've never felt so motivated to take notes! of course it isn't for everyone and my issue with traditional note taking was my purely my own fault, however I would definetly recommend digital, (again, only if you have the means to do so, it isn't absolutley necessary and everyone works differently, I just personally really enjoy it).

[@piplup10203854]

For me the biggest advantage is my backpack is a lot lot lighter. I have drawers full of notebooks of all types of sizes with books I've written or starting to write, doodles, notes, ideas, and I literally do not want to go through them all. I still find random notebooks from my classes everywhere like why did I keep this chemistry notebook but with the Ipad I literally can downsize all my notes to fit in a compact easy to find place and I can keep backups of all that on an ssd and that is my substitute for all that clutter a small box of ssd's but the switch was easy for me. I do love handwriting but not enough that I can't switch. I love my fountain pens and my inks and everything but when you carry around ink bottles and all that it's not so fun. Ipad gives me all those ink colors, albeit not as vibrant or shimmery as fountain inks, but I do get pretty close to the colors I love and that works well enough. I like being able to check one page for everything my brain just dumps lol

I am still so unsure if I should get an ipad! I am an online student and only take 2 classes a semester so I not doing any crazy amount of notes. I love taking handwritten notes but I find it could be more convenient to store all my notes digitally and can be easier to access. Rather than having all my notebooks scattered around. Also, handwritten notes can be tedious and time consuming but i'm unsure if using a stylus can make it even harder and more distracting. With taking hand notes I feel I take so much time writing everything down it could be nice to copy and past from a digital notebook and organize into a document. so I am so unsure what is best for me. I am mainly worried about storing my notes somewhere safely, keeping them organized and being able to spend less time writing (not sure if it is equally time consuming writing with a stylus but at least you can copy/paste in an ipad).
