I'm going to provide my feedback here so I can bump this thread and more can interact on the HB.

I think there are a number of things about computers that have made the learning environment easier and, for that reason, it deprecates the learning experience. As much as I love computers, I'm glad to have been forced to use a regular typewriter and real books to do research papers in high school and college. Copying and pasting a huge chunk of text doesn't force me to have to choose words as carefully.

With specific reference to notes, I've never liked computers. I cannot annotate important points as well. I want to be able to mark things and even diagram things to make points clearer. Every time I've tried to go to a computer to replace normal note taking it has never worked for me.
