insane? I learned cursive but I was always faster writing without it. this has never been a problem for me. I type faster than handwriting. Cursive is a waste of valuable school time. there are more useful things to teach.
if you actually think "fast hand-written note taking" is a critical skill you should advocate for teaching shorthand. I'm not convinced cursive is actually faster and the science on that is hardly clear. http://nautil.us/issue/40/learning/cursive-handwriting-and-other-education-myths http://nautil.us/issue/40/learning/cursive-handwriting-and-o...
- m0llusk 7y agoLearning cursive is a waste of time like video games are a waste of time. The process teaches hand-eye coordination, patience, and even learning itself.
- brokensegue 7y agook... so should we teach video games in schools? I'm not saying we should ban the use of cursive. I'm saying it doesn't deserve a prominent place in school curriculums.
