^For my French courses, I used a combination of my phone and my paper notebook. I only used my phone to translate words I didn’t know and to quickly look up verb conjugations, otherwise I wrote everything out on paper. I found paper to be the easiest because of things like accents. (Although accents are very easy to do on my phone, but are a terribly long process on a PC).

But there were people in my class who used laptops and ipads as the main usage for note-taking. I’d say it’s a personal preference and depends on the professor. Since language courses tend to be smaller, you’ll probably see more people using pen and paper.
