My mother is a teacher. She and I talk about education often, and a conversation weve had has been over the death of cursive. Now, apparently, curricula across the United States are phasing out printing by placing such a strong emphasis on keyboard use starting as early as 1st grade. Ive thought for a long time that its a mistake to stop teaching cursive and I most definitely think that the fine motor skill of writing, even printing, teaches us more than we realize. Now, there are some studies that have actually considered this very topic and I find the results to be pretty interesting.
