The short answer: yes! Here’s why … Studies have shown that writing by hand can enhance memory and information retention compared to typing. Writing vs. typing is particularly helpful in school, especially for students who need to solidify complex concepts or memorize key details. Paper planners offer a dedicated space to write down schedules, assignments, and to-do lists. This physical record not only promotes focus by minimizing distractions from digital devices, but also creates a tangible connection between intention and action, making students (teachers, parents, everyone) more likely to follow through on their plans.
Every student has their own learning and planning style. Using a student planner like our best-selling Academic Planner can help you organize your class schedule, notes, and important assignments. Here are some of the must-haves for every student planner:
- Planning pages for academic lessons
- Class schedules
- Weekly, monthly, and yearly planning pages
- Projects and exams tracker
- Productivity pages for goal setting and habit tracking
- Note pages, academic year calendar, and more
- Bonus: Planner stickers for categorizing different school subjects and task types
