My interest in this course: I have observed and experienced problems in the 'real world" with not using my own coordination skills, depending too much on typing. I have wondered if the future generations have missed out on developmental skills. This program has answered these questions, and it is a resounding yes. This seminar has confirmed what I have observed in children that it is imperative to at the very least learn how to print and learn to sign in cursive for academic achievememt.

Rationale for promoting handwriting is clearly evident. Examples of good techniques great for newer therapists. Good fodder for educating the classroom teacher and their administrators that do not see the worth of handwriting in the general sense of academic achievements..

She really covers all the factors that impact penmanship from environmental, changes in educational systems priorities, uses of handwriting, physical, habitual, development of pencil grasp, fine motor skills required for preschool, ages that skills develop, various handwriting programs, some I have never heard of, also new on the market pencil grips, pencils types, and working with children at various ages.
