How important is it for students to learn cursive writing?
Asked at Massachusetts Street on November 15, 2013
“Not very important, but if they don’t know it, they can’t read it, and that would be problematic.”
— Lane Eisenbart, receptionist, Lawrence
“It is moderately important. There are cases where you might not have access to computers and if your handwriting is illegible you would be at a disadvantage.”
— Vincent Artman, student, Lawrence
“I don’t think it’s that important, unless you’re pursuing a career that involves writing.”
— Ben Ozonoff, student, Lawrence
“Pretty much not at all. It seems like it’s a lost art. It looks pretty, though.”
— Cody Stuber, student, Lawrence
