THE IMPORTANCE OF CURSIVE WRITING

Kids are proud when they can write cursive. It makes them feelgrown up. In fact, our handwriting grows up with us and becomesunique, like ourselves.

Delving further, we human beings are wired in such a way thatthere is constant communication between our hands and our brains.When we write in cursive, important things happen.

WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS

Brain/handwriting research projects have been carried out inrecent years by experts in the field. The following are resultsfrom studies done at Indiana University, Princeton, the Universityof California, and the University of Washington:

Handwriting, cursive writing in particular, increases activityin the areas of the brain involved with reading, writing, thinking,language, and working memory. Long-term benefits of the stimulationto these areas by input such as cursive writing includes learningmore thoroughly, retaining information longer, and grasping newideas more quickly.

In addition, cursive writing stimulates brain synapses andsynchronicity between the left and right hemispheres, somethingabsent from printing, typing or keyboarding. Studies of elementaryschool children found that they wrote more words, wrote faster, andexpressed more ideas when writing essays by hand than while using akeyboard. Students who took notes by hand in class generallyoutperformed students who typed their notes into a computer -typing is a simpler motor skill that requires shallowerprocessing.

When we write in cursive, we ask our brains to be smarter. Weask our brains to recognize individualized strokes of the pen inrelation to other strokes and to other people's strokes, toremember size, slant, and details of each letter and word that weform, and to categorize all of these things and connect them totrains of thought. In this way, it is not valid to suggest that,for instance, art classes can replace what is lost by not learningcursive writing.

HANDWRITING - PRINTING OR CURSIVE?

Before the first half of the twentieth century, American schoolchildren learned nothing but cursive, starting in kindergarten, andthis is how writing is still taught in many other countries. Somepeople advocate that American schools return to this practicebecause cursive writing is actually easier to use than blockprinting.

Cursive should not be left behind. It's faster and easier,enables students to develop their own style, but most important ofall, it produces the most beneficial brain activity in the long andthe short term when compared to printing and typing. In fact,allowing schools to drop cursive if they wish may, in the end,create inequality among schools, i.e. if some schools teach cursivebut others deny students access to a writing skill that helps laythe groundwork for academic achievement.

HANDWRITING AND TYPING – BOTH ARE NEEDED

People need keyboard typing in order to interact with mostmachines in the world but we need cursive writing to keep thereading/learning/memory processes in our brains invigorated.

The technology of Joined-Up Cursive ABCs provides a way topractice cursive writing at school, at home, or anywhere, includingmaking use of a keyboard, and enabling cursive to continue its partin developing, coordinating, and maintaining the vibrancy of ourminds!
