The night before her essay was due, the 19-year-old spent hours soaking soy beans, crushing them and squeezing them in a cloth. Haga then took another two hours to mix the soybean extract with the right amount of water. Only after she had finished all of this, did she quickly jot down her essay, without giving much thought to the content. Ill_Definition8074 , Peter Olexa/Pexels Report

The essay was written in invisible ink, and the words only appeared when the paper was heated. Before handing it to her professor, she left a note in normal ink telling him to heat the paper. “When the professor said in class that he would give a high mark for creativity, I decided that I would make my essay stand out from others,” she said. thedubiousstylus , Diana ✨/Pexels Report

Psychologist and co-author of the study Audrey van der Meer explained that handwriting is worlds apart from typing. “We don’t see that [synchronized activity] in typewriting at all.” She added that writing by hand is a “neurobiologically richer process” and that this in itself has cognitive benefits.

You might think taking notes by hand in a meeting or class is tedious, and time-consuming. But that’s exactly why it works. Van der Meer explains that because it takes longer, you’re forced to process the information. You might write key words or phrases and use drawings or arrows to work through ideas. “You make the information your own,” she told NPR, and that helps it stick in the brain.
