I've never been able to fully give up writing notes, I truly do believe you gather so much more information in the handwritten word, so glad you posted this!
I like handwriting so much that my husband actually purchased me the Kindle Scribe. This gives me the ability to write and keep notes without the legal pads. It has the look and feel of pen to paper and is one of my all time favorite devices. (Should you ever consider another device!)
I also have gone back to taking many notes by hand -- on paper. Curious if you've ever tried a digital notebook, though, like reMarkable or similar. I haven't, but have always wondered if that has the same impact as hand-written notes but the efficiency of digital.
Well said Tim. I too have tried all types of note taking and your point regarding clarity versus the amount of data captured rings home. Keep the dispatches coming. I really enjoy them.
Thank you for this! Perfect timing as I’m planning to remind students why we ask them to stay off their laptops when we have a special speaker in class.

I have not tried one of those, simply because the $5 legal pad has worked wonders. I think the "no device in meetings" rule has really helped.

thank you my friend - I hope you are doing well.
