Cursive: to write or not to write?

This article is about how the teaching of writing in cursive is slowly disappearing in schools.

Cursive writing may be fading skill, but so what?

Not sure how I feel about this. If push comes to shove, I would sadly but strongly support skipping teaching cursive in order to make time for science, phys ed, history, etc. But I guess I still think learning cursive is important as a part of comprehensive writing and as a part of our culture. Maybe that sounds weird, but that's what I think.

What do you think?

  1. Self expression. Like all other forms, isn't given much more than lip service. It's unfortunate.
