    The general argument made by Jessica Bennett in her article,”The Curse of Cursive”, published in Newsweek, addresses that cursive is unnecessary. Bennett argues that penmanship is irrelevant because the majority of the population don’t integrate cursive in their handwriting. She provides evidence that indicates most individuals don’t utilize penmanship from “in 2006, just 15 percent of SAT takers used cursive on the written test”(P.4). Through presenting that the minority of students employ cursive on the written test, she suggests that learning penmanship is not a significant skill to learn since the majority of student don’t utilize it. In conclusion, Bennet’s opinion is that being taught cursive is pointless.…

    Cursive has been used over many times in history years. Maybe even used way before that! About the adventure of Christopher Columbus, he wrote in his journal in cursive! The famous document in the USA today, the Declaration of Independence, was written in outstanding cursive by Thomas Jefferson. By many times in the modern world, cursive today is replaced by technology. Instead of taking notes by cursive, or by normal handwriting, students in college has defined that technology would be faster and it would take less time, but think about it. Our minds or brains need to function more openly to the outside world, not locked up in a very tight screen that would make your eyesight go away. Technology has some nasty curse, but…

    I always prefer writing in cursive than keyboarding. Because I think when I am writing on paper, I will have a smooth train of thinking for my writing. In addition, I enjoy the process of writing on the paper. I like to listen to the sound that the pen scratches the paper. However, when I am typing essay on the computer, I cannot write smoothly because I usually write some grammar faults in my sentences and the Word will digitally find the faults and display them. I do not enjoy seeing some dashes under my sentences. Therefore, I have to stop to write and correct the faults. Then, my train of thinking is interrupted, and I always fell upset about that. As a result, I prefer writing in cursive than typing.…

    Today's children in the class room are no longer being taught to write in cursive. I don't think this is such a bad thing. As the world changes, so does technology. Children of today should be taught more computer skills and sufficiant typing rather than writting in cursive.…

    In my opinion, both arguments make valid points. In the excerpt "Cursive Is a Powerful Brain Tool", it states that psychologists found students learned more if they handwrote notes instead of typing them. Although that may be true for some, its a biased argument because we don't know how many people were surveyed to find that out. Not everyone learns the same, so cursive cannot be helpful for everyone. When I was younger I was taught cursive and told that I would be using it for the rest of my life. But here I am now typing an essay on a computer instead of writing it on paper.…

    Cursive should be taught in schools because, they will end up using it everyday or close to everyday. Cursive is something that we should teach children in school. Later in their life they will need to know how to sign their name because not everything you put your name on can be in print. An example for when and why you would use it would be when you write out a check you have to sign your name at the bottom of it. You can not sign a check in print, you must sign it in cursive or the company that you would be filling out the check to wouldn't take it. The bank wouldn't take a check that is not signed in cursive. Writing things in cursive can be hard sometimes but just because you don't remember what it is or how to write it ask someone and…

    I’ve always had the desire to write beautifully, from penmanship to placement and flow of the words. I remember getting birthday cards from my Granny with elegant cursive writing. Attracted to the way each word blended so smooth and soft, I would get a piece of paper and mimic the slants of each word connecting each letter, more like one lowercase “l” after another, to the next. One day I’d be able to spell the words in my mind, and until that day I’d practice my “cursive” one squiggly line at a time.…

    I believe handwriting is important in all grades because students will use this skill for the rest of their lives. Handwriting becomes part of everyday life from the time you are taught it to the time you pass away. You will use handwriting to take notes, make grocery lists, do homework, take tests, and sign your autograph. Students will use handwriting in every subject in school. Everything from math to drawing to language arts will require the use of handwriting on a daily basis. (Spear-Swerling, 2010, para 4). In the primary grades handwriting is linked with basic reading skills as well as reading accomplishments. Once students learn their letters they can then learn the sound behind each letter. This helps them sound out each word in their handwriting, reading, and spelling skills. (Spear-Swerling, 2010, para 5).…

    There are more relevant things in life that schools should start teaching, rather than cursive (examples: how to pay income tax, how to get a mortgage ect). It should be up to the student whether they think it would be a good idea, to enroll in a class that teaches him/her cursive. Of course, I’m not saying we should stop teaching handwriting altogether, I just think that teaching cursive, isn’t helpful. Perhaps we could teach them to sign their name, but that’s probably the only important purpose cursive serves. More people can read print rather than cursive now, & in case you didn’t know when you’ve know only how to print your whole life, it’s not easy, like… AT ALL, cursive’s never really helped me, I don’t see why so many people are trying to defend…

    I think that public school students should be taught how to write in cursive. Because cursive writing is essential and it is good for our minds. Also because cursive writing helps with fine motor-skills development. As well as stimulating both the right and the left parts of our brain. Also cursive writing requires alot of connected movements which is good. Unlike typing and printing by hand which only requires individual rather than connected movements. Neither typing nor printing involve communication between both sides of the brain. But cursive writing does which is great for our brains. Learning cursive writing doesn't only help brains become stronger. It also helps individuals reduce the effects of brain injury or weakness. Cursive…

Typing is more useful than handwriting where it has shown more students have more success and proficient preparing for adulating such as getting jobs.…
