[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure. Though as much as I agree that it would be a good thing to learn, it would be very far down my list of priorities when choosing a school.[/quote] DD's school still learns cursive and I've never understood why it would be helpful to learn in this day and age. Would rather have them spend that time practicing typing. [/quote] There are studies that connect handwriting to better cognitive engagement. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11943480/ https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-athletes-way/202010/why-cursive-handwriting-is-good-your-brain [/quote] That is kind of odd since doctor's are known for having awful handwriting and they tend to be fairly bright...[/quote] The correlation is about the actual physical process of writing by hand, not a comparison of one’s intellect and writing legibility.
