It's a universal truth that writing things out, whether it be an equation or code, et cetera, is beneficial in retaining information
Studies, albeit outdated, have disproven that this same effect holds for typing things out on a computer. I argue that this is mainly due to the transitionary shift from the written form to a more digital one.
And recently I most certainly "feel" that I learn content better when I take time to type things out.. even mirroring text, but this only began happening after 5+ years of spending 8hrs+ typing (I mainly write software and touch type i.e., letters are hardwired to particular, consistent strokes), anyone else beginning to experience this?
