I went to college long before the era of laptops, so I learned to take notes the old-fashioned way: ink on paper. But that does not mean my note-taking system was simple. Indeed it was an intricate hieroglyphic language, in which asterisks and underscoring and check marks and exclamation points all had precise meaning, if only to me. It's a lost art. Many college students have some kind of electronic note-taking device nowadays, and most will swear by them.

But has anyone actually compared the two? Of course, students could develop an elaborate hieroglyphic system using a laptop. They ran a few experiments, all basically the same. This experiment provided preliminary evidence that laptops might be harmful to academic performance. At least right away. The scientists tried to simulate this in another experiment. The findings, which Mueller and Oppenheimer describe in a forthcoming issue of the journal Psychological Science, were a bit surprising.
