In a dimly lit lecture theatre, its always easier to use pen and paper.
Most lecture theatres I have been in have been entirely unsuitable for
laptops in terms of space.


So they might be. It doesnt mean that hand-written essays are unacceptible.
No university worth its salt can downmark or refuse to accept hand-written
essays. Similarly hand-written notes are as good - if not better - than
laboriously entered data on a computer.

I can drop hand-written notes. I might spend ages sorting the pages out but
my notes would be more durable.

Dont get me wrong - I love computers. I do think that the data volatility
plus the delicate nature of laptops added to their attraction to thieves
tends to make them unattractive for me. I used to be a student but would not
care to risk what would be effectively my future life on something as dicy
as that.
