In the age of the keyboard,some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out.
Steve Graham, a literacy professor at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, has been hearing about the death of handwriting for the past fifteen years. He said, "If the results of a survey we have published this year are accurate,it is being taught by about ninety percent of teachers in grades one to three."
Ninety percent of teachers also say their are required to teach handwriting.
Professor Graham says one study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. others teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a day.
Many adults remember learning that way—by copying letters over and over again. Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. Instead ,they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas.
