This 30-minute webinar focuses on the connections between literacy, handwriting and technology.

Jonathan Dubay, CEO and Curriculum Specialist of Handwriting Success and Justin Smith, CEO of the Educational App Store will discuss how research is showing us that handwriting is not just icing on the educational cake.

Students build orthographic and compositional skill through the experience of handwriting, at a greater rate and to a greater degree than by typing or via other non-motor activities.

The tablet and stylus have played a surprising role in the history of handwriting and education, and promise to be a significant part of the modern technology-ready classroom. Best practices for teaching technology-ready handwriting for all students should emphasize legibility and fluency with a multi-mode approach.
