Why the pen is mightier than the keyboard (infographic)

Writing on a keyboard is fast, but does it make you smarter?

National Pen Company has released an infographic that compares handwriting and typing.

Here are the benefits of finding that good old pen you were using ten years ago, and that’s still somewhere in the drawer:

• better reading comprehension,
• more effective memory recall,
• sharpened critical thinking,
• increased creativity.

The benefits of handwriting don’t stop at more efficient and effective note taking – handwriting also allows you to take a deeper look at your personality.
