Designing the Right Educational Strategy: Focusing on Desired Outcomes
Deseret News - (10/21/2010)
I was ecstatic this year when I discovered my son Tyler would have one of the best teachers with whom I've ever interacted as his 2nd grade teacher. That enthusiasm was slightly muted, though, when I remembered that he, like most 2nd and 3rd graders throughout the state, will spend hundreds of hours this year learning the arguably ancient art of cursive. I'll confess that as I watch the enthusiasm and ease of learning our children have toward science, reading, technology, and foreign languages, I wonder how spending such time honing the craft of cursive writing will contribute to the skill development necessary to succeed in the 21st century.
