With the use of computers in the classroom, less emphasis is being placed on handwriting. There is considerably less time devoted to teaching handwriting as a subject in the classroom and this article examines the effect it will have on the new generation of children. According to this article, handwriting helps in the development of the brain and cognitive performance in children. Children will remember better when they write notes by hand instead of typing them into a computer. Some research indicate that children do not have the ability to touch-type effectively until they become teenagers. The author strongly advocates bringing back handwriting as an integral part of the curriculum because of the myriad number of benefits that this practice can have on our young people.
