Like to memorize a random password or something, type it a couple times and when you need to remember it consciously you can just type it or even imagine typing it.
But “muscle memory” helps you remember the password better than as a string of unrelated charecters.
We just know the advantages of writing because it’s been around so long.
The advantages of typing, aren’t proven or even discovered yet.
But yeah, the answer is never one or the other, it’s both.
Oh of course typing has its own advantages! It would be wise to utilize a combination especially in educational settings. Plus children should be taught how to type and utilize all sorts of tech.
I’m not a parent totally opposed to the use of laptops in school. And honestly, my kid’s school does a pretty good job at balancing the tech with older school methods of learning. But it does no good to insist on transitioning kids into using tech only.
Meh, typing has other advantages too.
