Why do you need to learn handwriting skills? I personally write everything to notes on my phone or laptop in real life and the only place where I need to hand-write long pieces of text is in school. Writing on a blackboard skills must be a joke. School should teach you to make notes based on what the teacher is saying (the skill here is being able to find the useful information and being able to store it), but the method of writing it should be the method you are gonna use irl. For me and most people in my age I believe, it's writing it on phone or a laptop. Tbf phones in school bring various problems, but I don't think lack of writing skills is among them.
Well, at University, we learned that students retain more of what they're learning, when writing. Our brains are not fully adapted yet to process typed input as well as written.
Ok, didn't know about that. Do you have any source possible? I'm really curious about how worse is it.
This seems like a good starting point
