Presentor gave a very basic presentation on handwriting and did not fully answer questions during the presentation. She has not used all of her own resources presented and while this may be good for teachers, I feel for OTs, we could go into more depth even for an introductory course.

I thought she had some good ideas, but I would have liked to see more evidence that kids past elementary will make improvements with handwriting, besides "they have to be motivated"
by

The course reinforces what is commonly practiced in school-based therapy. In 2024, some of the resources/studies appear outdated. A good way to summarize this course is that motivation is key with students. After 4th grade, it is difficult to change a student's handwriting habits.

The presenter provided opinions based on her observations without reliable research evidence, citing New York Times articles and Harvard business review. Rather than citing evidence for the development of handwriting. In fact, many of her unsupported claims contradict research presented in other courses including "Integrated Evidence-Based Keuboarding", "How To Fix Common Handwriting Challenges In Pediatric Therapy", and "Size Matters Handwriting Program: Promoting Legibility and Carryover"
