Summary/Abstract: ”The king is dead. God save the king!” Is the RAM the new king of storage in favour of the old paper’? Is it the new leader in the kingdom of learn and knowledge? Students and teachers alike tend to use digitalization and its functions with the purpose of updating and streamlining study materials in the current era (especially after the pandemic). The belief that information and formal higher education are supported by static tools in order to create the idea of materiality and ‘staying put’ is heavily being challenged by the idea of moving and ‘flowing’. This case study is meant to quantify and analyse students’ familiarity and preference of various gadgets and screens in their study. It is also partially seeking to observe their effect on health/well-being in relationship with data-and-knowledge-storage (DKS).
