    The issue of whether or not handwriting will become obsolete has gained increasing prominence in Australian media recently after the education minsters’ agreement that in 2016, the State wide Naplan test will be done online. In her opinion piece titled, “The vanishing art of handwriting”, a supplement magazine for a weekend paper, Leslie Slater expresses her concern that the growing use of technologies intended to replace traditional “pen and paper” could mean that handwriting will eventually, no longer be an “everyday skill.” Targeted at adults, mainly consisting of parents, Slater urges that writing by hand should continue to be encouraged in schools or else handwriting will indeed one day, “vanish.”…

    In this article, the researchers used a program called Handwriting without Tears to help two preschool students write. The two preschoolers were a four year old boy and girl. The boy was diagnosed with autism and the girl was diagnosed with developmental delays. The two students were only able to write the letters in their name legibly and struggled with any other letters. This study was given to both students in a self-contained special education classroom. The researches took time to observe both students individually for 15 min during the beginning of the afternoon class period. There were four letters that both of the students focused on during the study the letters were T, H, D, F. There were four different interventions used in this…

    In a journal entry from July, 1910, E. M. Forster wrote, "However gross my desires, I find that I shall never satisfy them for the fear of annoying others. I am glad to come across this much good in me. It serves instead of purity." Although Forster wrote this passage some two years after he published A Room with a View, it could have been written at almost anytime during his long life. However much he understood the "holiness of direct desire," the emotional purity one achieves by following the heart rather than social orthodoxy, he spent his youth and young adulthood, as Lucy Honeychurch nearly did, repressing his sexual desires to adhere to the expectations of society.…

    Once, called away to an unanticipated school conference, I began drafting my short noticed speech with a yellow wooden pencil. Unfortunately this graphite loaded, eraser-tipped writing spear has become an alienated object as I readily admit my dependence on a new technology of writing. I found that I had become so used to composing virtual prose that I could no longer draft anything coherent directly onto a piece of paper. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t think of the words, but the deliberate physical effort of handwriting, crossing out, revising, cutting and pasting was much too tedious. The writing practices that I had been engaged in regularly since the age of four, now seemed to overwhelm and constrict me as I longed for the flexibility of digitized text.…

    Cursive Legacy

    Tennessee, are now trying to legislate a cursive comeback (Turner). As I have said previously, the states of Arkansas, North Carolina, Indiana, and many others have already passed bills to make the instruction of cursive mandatory. This means so much because people have made their voices heard. After all these people have decided to get up and say something about this issue to the important people such as, mayors, representatives, principals, so they can do something about it and they can make it part of the school day. Not only are people saying that cursive needs to be taught they are bringing facts and other subjects into the argument. Some cursive supporters invoke science, arguing that learning cursive helps young brains grow more than…

    Violence in our schools has always been a problem, now more than ever before. Each year many students are injured and some are even killed during so-called “school-yard brawls.” In fact, more than 1,000 students are seriously injured per year during school violence in California alone. (http://www.geocities.com/area51/stats/7403.html) In most cases of serious injury, weapons were involved, including common school supplies such as pencils and pens. Historically, the school systems response to possession of weapons on campus has been at the very least confiscation of said weapons and suspension of the possessor, more commonly expulsion of the possessor and occasionally the bringing of criminal charges to bear. The use of weapons to do violence has had much the same results. In some schools, the students pass through a metal detector and/or are searched for weapons upon a regular basis. (Ch. 4 news at 6:00), However, when the weapons being used are common school supplies, what can one do? The number of students injured by their classmates with common school supplies such as pencils and pens are on the rise. A student carrying a gun or a knife is often busted before having an opportunity to use said weapon, one with a pencil on the other hand, they run free until they seriously injure or even possibly kill someone with the pencil. Our current policy is to deal with the student after they commit the crime, as far as stabbing with pencils go anyway, treating them as though they had used any other weapon. It is my belief that something can be done to prevent, or at least minimize the number of incidents involving the use of pencils as “stealth” weapons in our classrooms. Although we do not need to worry about lead poisoning from pencils, (pencil lead is really graphite), (From graphite to pencil, Ali Mitgutsch, 1985) when misused a pencil is a deadly weapon, one far worse than a pocketknife.…

    Throughout history, there have been two main tactics of promoting a cause: the pen and the sword. The pen refers to writing and giving speeches whereas the sword refers to violent direct actions. One tactic is more civil and metropolitan the other is more forceful and dynamic. African-American rights and Women Rights have been stood for in the national spotlight. Both tactics have been used for each movement, but which tactic was more effective for promoting the cause? The pen is mightier than the sword because it reaches a greater amount of people, it inspires action, and the message lasts for a longer time.…

    I was so glad to hear from you. How have you been? Things are going well in my life. To answer your questions about the internet, I will start with the digital divide. As I understand it, the digital divide is about the haves and the have nots. The haves are the ones with digital technology, such as a computer, ipad, or a smart phone. The have nots are the ones that do not have these devices. I suppose the side to be on is the haves side. As far as a bridge, all you need is a computer with an internet connection. I do not believe that those who do not have more powerful or the more recent technology to be better, any internet connection will do.…
