Today is National Handwriting Day! Although we don't write like we used to, here are four ways handwriting is still helpful.</div>
<h4 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.25em; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
1. IT'S BETTER FOR LEARNING</h4>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
One of the most effective ways to study and retain new information is to rewrite your notes by hand. That's because putting ink to paper stimulates a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System, or the RAS. <a href="http://lifehacker.com/5738093/why-you-learn-more-effectively-by-writing-than-typing" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">According to <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lifehacker</em>,</a> "The RAS acts as a filter for everything your brain needs to process, giving more importance to the stuff that you're actively focusing on that moment — something that the physical act of writing brings to the forefront." <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704631504575531932754922518.html" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">One study from 2010</a> found that the brain areas associated with learning "lit up" much more when kids were asked to write words like "spaceship" by hand versus just studying the word closely. </div>
<h4 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.25em; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
2. IT MAKES YOU A BETTER WRITER</h4>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Many famous authors opt for the meticulousness of writing by hand over the utility of a typewriter or computer. <a href="http://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/1505/the-art-of-fiction-no-143-susan-sontag" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">In a 1995 interview with the <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Paris Review</em></a>, writer Susan Sontag said that she penned her first drafts the analog way before typing them up for editing later. "I write with a felt-tip pen, or sometimes a pencil, on yellow or white legal pads, that fetish of American writers," <a href="http://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/1505/the-art-of-fiction-no-143-susan-sontag" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">she said</a>. "I like the slowness of writing by hand." Novelist Truman Capote insisted on a similar process, although his involved lying down with a coffee and cigarette nearby. "No, I don't use a typewriter," <a href="http://www.flavorwire.com/193101/weird-writing-habits-of-famous-authors" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">he said in an interview</a>. "Not in the beginning. I write my first version in longhand (pencil). Then I do a complete revision, also in longhand." <a href="http://www.futurity.org/society-culture/for-kids-pens-mightier-than-keyboard/#more-4909" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A 2009 study from the University of Washington seems to support</a> Sontag, Capote, and many other writers' preference for writing by hand: Elementary school students who wrote essays with a pen not only wrote more than their keyboard-tapping peers, but they also wrote faster and in more complete sentences. </div>
<h4 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.25em; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
3. IT WILL PREVENT YOU FROM BEING DISTRACTED</h4>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The computer in front of you is a time-sucking portal to puppy videos and ex-boyfriend/girlfriend stalking. That's why self-imposed lockout programs like <a href="http://www.facebooklimiter.com/%20" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Facebook Limiter</a>and <a href="http://minutesplease.com/" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Minutes Please</a> exist in the first place. Of course, the internet isn't all bad. In 2012, neuroscientists even suggested that taking five-minute breaks to browse Tumblr or <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">BuzzFeed</em>could <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/01/technology/when-internet-distractions-make-us-more-efficient.html?_r=0" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">make you a more productive worker</a>. On the other hand, when you're all GIF'd-out and it's time to work on that dissertation, there's something to be said for the elegant simplicity of having only a pen and paper in front of you... especially since that paper probably isn't plugged into the distraction-laden internet. Try writing with laser-like focus for short 20-minute stretches at a time.</div>
<h4 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.25em; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
4. IT KEEPS YOUR BRAIN SHARP AS YOU GET OLDER</h4>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: pragmatica-web, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Writing longhand is a workout. No, not necessarily for your wrist, but for your brain. According to <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The</em> <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Wall Street Journal, </em><a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704631504575531932754922518.html" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #04bfc3; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">some physicians claim</a> that the act of writing — which engages your motor-skills, memory, and more — is good cognitive exercise for baby boomers who want to keep their minds sharp as they age. And if you're looking to pick up a new skill, a 2008 study published in the <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience </em>found that adults had an easier time recognizing new characters — like Chinese, math symbols, or music notes — that were written by hand over characters generated by a computer.</div>
