Which is better , writing or typing（打字）?

Both groups got almost the same result in 83 the facts. But students who typed their notes did worse on conceptual（可理解的）questions.

However, the students typing notes on a laptop usually just write down 86 says word for word in class. Although they can write more notes, they just type without really thinking 87 what they are typing. “This usually leads to mindless transcription（抄录）”, say the scientists.
