    “You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”

In this quote, Steve Jobs stresses the importance of

    Two of the main changes that are revolutionizing the medical field are electronic medical records and clinical practice guidelines. Evidence-based guidelines allow doctors to figure out the likely causes of a symptom and the best way to treat it. In Taiwan, the national health care system is now designed so that doctors have instant access to these statistics from their computer. As the field of healthcare has changed, new diseases and disorders have developed. It is impossible for one doctor to know how to recognize and treat every disease in the world. With evidence-based guidelines, they can come close. These guidelines may not have a perfect success rate, but they can make diagnosing illness easier.

    Doctors are benefiting immensely from the drive toward electronic medical records. With one touch of a button, doctors can access all the care a patient has ever received and can figure out possible illnesses. Another benefit of this new technology is that it enables statistical documentation of the whole population. It can also help to make the healthcare system more transparent and can be integrated with reimbursement data.

The only question to which there’s no answer in the text is:

    Handwriting notes in class might seem like an anachronism as smartphones and other digital technology subsume every aspect of learning across schools and universities. But a steady stream of research continues to suggest that taking notes the traditional way – with pen and paper or even stylus and tablet – is still the best way to learn, especially for young children. And now scientists are finally zeroing in on why.

    A recent study in Frontiers in Psychology monitored brain activity in students taking notes and found that those writing by hand had higher levels of electrical activity across a wide range of interconnected brain regions responsible for movement, vision, sensory processing and memory. The findings add to a growing body of evidence that has many experts speaking up about the importance of teaching children to handwrite words and draw pictures.

    The new research, by Audrey van der Meer and Ruud van der Weel at the Norwegian University, builds on a foundational 2014 study. That work suggested that people taking notes by computer were typing without thinking. “It’s very tempting to type down everything that the lecturer is saying,” they say. “It kind of goes in through your ears and comes out through your fingertips, but you don’t process the incoming information.”

    But when taking notes by hand, it’s often impossible to write everything down; students have to actively pay attention to the incoming information and process it – prioritize it, consolidate it and try to relate it to things they’ve learned before. This conscious action of building onto existing knowledge can make it easier to stay engaged and grasp new concepts.

    To understand specific brain activity differences during the two note-taking approaches, the researchers tweaked the 2014 study’s basic setup. They sewed electrodes into a hairnet with 256 sensors that recorded the brain activity of 36 students as they wrote or typed 15 words from the game Pictionary that were displayed on a screen. When students wrote the words by hand, the sensors picked up widespread connectivity across many brain regions. Typing, however, led to minimal activity, if any, in the same areas.
