Handwriting's on the wall

See, I was left handed and in grade school ...

... So, my first year in high school I took typing and have typed all the way though college and on into the present day. My retention is fine and I say screw hand writing.

... Which serves a proof that humans adapt, and research often discounts or ignores anything that rings as an exception to their hypothesis.

I have left-handed family that never fails to remind of the disconnected brutality of the schools' treatment to 'correct' the so-called "sinister deficiency."

I would hope those days are over.

Anyway, the data behind this idea shows that linking motor-skill activity to learning exercises leads to better retention.  Which is not to say that without writing, people don't learn at all.
