About this product
Product Information
"Cursive handwriting shapes the executive functions of the brain for successful academic performance while enhancing creative and critical thinking practices required for meaningful interpretations of what we see. Even more compelling is how handwriting instruction influences neuroplasticity of the brain and contributes to character development and psychological healing!" For generations, American school children were taught to write in joined letters. Current educational policies have eliminated this essential skill from the curriculum and in many school districts, children are no longer taught to read or write in cursive. Now that blackboards have been replaced by smart boards and spiral notebooks have given way to ambient-lit mobile devices, is cursive handwriting an outdated technology, irrelevant in the modern digital world? In this exhaustively-researched study, Celia M. Batan reveals what could be lost to children-and what can be harnessed-by returning to cursive instruction in the elementary grades and continuing the use of joined letters throughout high school. Ms. Batan demonstrates convincingly that cursive is about much more than beautiful penmanship. Drawing on studies from the diverse fields of neuroscience, physiology, and education, she reveals how cursive makes significant contributions to reading, writing, language, and overall cognitive development in early childhood. Includes Supporting Resources: Teacher Survey Results, Extensive Resource List From the Foreword: Once upon a time, becoming proficient in penmanship, as well as learning to write sentences in cursive, was an important and mandated skill developed by every elementary student. Writing in cursive was not only perceived as an art form, but also as demonstrative of a proper education. One of the hallmarks of the digital age has been typing letters using a computer keyboard; or worse, texting messages on cell phones using an abridged set of esoteric shorthand symbols that make pidgin English look like a well-developed formal language. However, what was unfortunately lost in this process was a natural way to foster children's creativity and critical thinking. This is the thesis of author Celia M. Batan's well-researched, insightful and paradigm-shifting new book: The Two-Digit Revolution. Dr. James Trifone, Educator, Researcher and Academic Director of The Learning and Thinking Master's Program, The Graduate Institute. Book jacket.

Timely delivery. Seller does not distinguish between new and old editions of any items. They copy/paste newest edition and just send whatever is in their warehouse by same title. Frustrating.
