Cursive handwriting teaching could be come to an end in most of the 45 states that have adopted the Common Core standards, a set of K-12 public school course offerings that dropped handwriting classes.

In the other side, seven states - California, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, North Carolina and Utah, are fighting to keep handwriting in the curriculum arguing that it has a positive effect on our brain and creativity, enhances hand-eye coordination, develops fine motor skills, help us read historial documents, the Constitution of the United States of America was written using this penmanship old art and "it used to be use to distinguish the literate from the illiterate".

The increasing number of children adopting and struggling with the new digital tools and trends forced officials to think about adding new standards and dropping others in an also increasing need for children to master computer science and technology.

"If they can't read cursive. If they can write it. How will they communicate from unwired settings like summer camp or the battlefield?" said Linden Bateman, representative from Idaho, who handwrites 125 ornate letters each year.

"If you just stop and think for a second about what are the sorts of skills that people are likely to be using in the future, it's much more likely that keyboarding will help students succeed in careers and in school than it is that cursive will," Morgan Polikoff, an assistant professor of K-12 policy and leadership at the University of Southern California, told AP.
