Research Question: How does the transfer of writing from being handwritten to typed/using a digital pen affect students? Introduction : A vast majority of teachers utilize technology to a significant extent in the classroom, and many students believe that classwork would be nearly impossible without the integration of this technology. This trend has become increasingly prevalent in educational institutions across the US. As technology continues to advance, it’s become an integral part of students' daily lives, influencing the way they are taught, take notes, and study. One notable change is the shift of writing tools; how the educational system has stopped relying on handwriting, to more advanced options like digital pens and typing. While these new tools are very beneficial, it’s crucial to analyze the impacts of these technologies, in terms of effectiveness, mental health and efficiency.
