Interesting Thing #1: Memory and Writing

Hello! Sorry this is a little late, I had some things that needed to get done, then forgot about it for a while :/. Anyways, today I shall be speaking about how writing stuff down makes it easier to remember it. A study showed that writing stuff down helped improve memory recovery more than typing. Some teachers use this study as justification for making their students write more. However, there are a few major problems with the study. They primarily used adults who had been writing since the started school. Now, more children are typing as much as they are writing. This leads to them being more used to typing, and is not something that the study takes into consideration. That alone makes the argument invalid. There is still another thing that is wrong, though. They did not take into account the placebo effect. This effect is extremely powerful and these situations, and will be elaborated on tomorrow. See you then, bye!
