Nowadays, we write things with a keyboard more often than that with a pen. For some people, they almost never write things by hand.
New brain research, led researchers in the Norwegian University, shares the same result. Here are the results.
"When you write your shopping list or lecture notes by hand, you simply remember things better," said Audrey. The study was completed using a machine to record brain wave activity. This is the first time that children have been tested in such a study. Each subject was asked to write by hand and type on a keyboard. Then the machine began to work. Each examination took 45 minutes for a person.
The results showed that the brain in both young adults and children is more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard. .
Audrey believes that it's of importance for children to learn to write at an early age, especially at school. "Writing by hand requires control of your fine skills. " Audrey added.
