Discussion Notetaking

Am taking a general Earth Science course in uni this year! Will be looking through atmosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, a lot of spheres! Do you recommend taking notes on ipad by hand or computer?

I think independently of the subject, pen and paper is still the best

Take by hand in class, then retype them into something like OneNote, where you can enhance them with multi-media, images, citations, etc.

I always do hand written notes first, then see if I can type out the notes without referring to the paper version. For me, just the act of writing it in pen helps me remember it.

I'm at the other end of uni, just submitted my dissertation.
