I’ve found that hand-writing notes affords me better overall retention of concepts than taking digital notes or just highlighting. I choose printing over cursive, while the cursive is faster, mine is illegible, thereby defeating the purpose. Also, I find that as I take notes, slowly my writing voice begins to mimic the text I’m studying.
