17．How do you message your friends，by writing or typing？And how do you take notes in class，with a pen or on a keyboard？We all know that typing is fast and writing is slow．We type to save time．And in the classroom，we can write more notes on a computer or laptop．But the slow process of writing is actually good to help us learn，according to a new study． Two psychologists（心理学家） of two world-famous universities found out that laptops are terrible for taking notes in class． So what was their main discovery？It turns out that handwriting is better because it slows the learner down．By slowing down the process of taking notes，learning becomes faster． It works like this：in the classroom，a typist is able to write down almost every word that the teacher said．But this process doesn't need any critical thinking（批判思考能力）． If you are taking notes by hand，you won't be able to write down every word the speaker says．You must think of summaries and ask questions about what you don't understand．At this time，you are sending a signal to your brain that it is worth（值得） remembering． Many scientists have found that handwriting is good for the brain areas connected with memory formation（形成）．That may explain why some kids come up with more ideas when they are writing compared to typing． Do you agree with the new research？If so，will it change the way you studying in the future？
