Ah, the trusty exercise book – an essential tool in supporting student learning and development.
As education goes digital, it’s easy to dismiss the importance of traditional writing methods.
However, research consistently shows that writing by hand in high-quality exercise books offers learning benefits for children.
This blog post explores the role of quality exercise books in nurturing young minds and supporting learning.
The Power of Putting Pen to Paper
Research shows that when kids write in their exercise books, it improves how well they learn and interact with topics.
Writing engages multiple senses, which helps children understand and remember information more effectively than typing.
There have been a few scientific studies on this, including a recent one from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
Lead researcher Audrey van der Meer told the New Scientist: “When you type on the keyboard, you only make very simple finger movements towards the keys, and they’re exactly the same movements for every letter you want to write.”
Here’s why:
- Writing by hand creates stronger neural pathways in the brain
- It’s a multisensory experience that enhances memory retention
- The tactile sensation of pen on paper reinforces learning
Organising Thoughts and Tracking Progress
Exercise books allow our students to organise their ideas and track their progress, which is also vital come exam season.
Exercise books serve as a physical record of a student’s learning journey
They help students identify areas of strength and areas for improvement
The act of writing and reflecting in exercise books promotes self-awareness and metacognition
