there are many diffrent that works on different people

Responses:

writing is more engaging than other methods. It's not the only way but it is the best. -- nm - zork Mar 10, 08:43 15
- This has been proven to be false. The best way differs from person to person. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Mar 10, 08:52 3
  - ok, to be specific, the way someone comprehends things may differ but writing them reinforces the learning. -- nm - zork Mar 10, 08:56 2
    - it is *one* way to do so, and is more effective for some than others. It is not a universal *best* way to do so. -- nm - znufrii Mar 10, 08:58 1
      - This is the answer. But I am too lazy to find the tons of articles that back it up. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Mar 10, 09:00
- for me, typing is far and away the best and the least distracting. I can actually look at the lecturer. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 08:45 1
  - Indeed - I can't write very well to begin with, let alone without looking. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 08:46
- perhaps to you -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 10, 08:45
- It depends on your individual learning style. -- nm - znufrii Mar 10, 08:45 1
  - and, as bery points out, on the subject being taught. -- nm - Roger More Mar 10, 08:46
- Not when it comes to software engineering. Not by a long shot. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 08:44 5
  - (Notes mean bubkiss. Studying means Coding.) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 08:44 4
    - problem solving and translation into code -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 10, 08:46 3
      - ah, yes. A valid point. - Beryllium Mar 10, 08:47 2
        
        first you learn the theory then you practice it. -- nm - zork Mar 10, 08:48 1
        
        That's not very scientific. *yawn* -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 08:50
