how many of you study from your smartphone? (lemmy.ml)

I'm old fashioned and learn the old way: you print what you need to study, get a pen and a highlighter, have a seat next to a table and get to it.

My current position offers me ample downtime but I'm not allowed to carry a portfolio with my study materials around and I don't like folding my A size papers (ANSI standard) because I end up ruining them that way.

A smartphone's screen is not very big and highlighting text with it is a nightmare. This is medicine I'm studying, meaning lots of graphics to locate veins, nerves...

I don't find it practical but maybe you do? If so, any tips?

I could create an epub or pdf file from the materials and use LibreraFD to access them. I don't know.

I do things mostly digitally except for things like math and diagrams where it's easier to draw it by hand.

If you're stuck on your phone, you could use Anki for flash cards.
