I like cursive too but I’d rather kids be taught some actually practical skills instead. Civics, home economics, geography (so we don’t appear in those “idiots can’t point at [insert country here] on a map” videos so often), and programming would be preferable.
I was effectively taught all of those things. I’m not even old I’m elder Gen Z.
Schools just need funding and we need to get rid of no child left behind.
Also those videos are very intentionally shot. They ask dozens of people and insert the ones that do poorly. Who wants to watch a video where everyone gets the answer correct?
It’s only faster if you write faster with it. It takes me longer to write in cursive, it did even back in middle school when I was forced to only use it instead of printing, and it still ends up far less legible. Also school should not be taught in a way where success is dependent on writing down facts as fast as you possibly can, that’s not actual teaching. But that’s a different issue, lol.
Nice! Yeah if you work at a desk and take a lot of calls, I’m sure that’s true. If I take time out of my work day to write down notes, I’m already behind. Thankfully it’s not part of the job.
Why would cursive be bad? Anyone who thinks AI shouldn’t be used for essay responses should be for cursive. As no one should want to write an essay in print.
Meanwhile the republicans are trying to bring back cursive handwriting. What a pathetic bunch of bitches
Tbh, I like cursive. It’s way faster for taking notes in class.
And yes you can type, but writing by hand seems to stick in the memory better. Or so I’ve been told

Remember: anyone can write at 100 words a minute if it’s completely unintelligible.
Even outside of school taking fast notes has been an absolute lifesaver on the job

Field scientist actually, but your guess also makes sense
