We were taught to make notes as we read - something that has passed 
out-of-favor. Nevertheless, psychology tells us that if we write notes 
we are more likely to remember* (so, why write the notes then?), and if 
we re-read those notes at the end of the day (for example), and then 
againt at the end of the week; the "spaced repetition" assists transfer 
from short-term, to long-term memory!

Even our digirati grand-children suddenly discover (a) the value of 
taking notes, and (b) the pyschology of writing with a pen cf typing - 
which may be even more of a surprise!


* more likely than if we didn't take notes
