Handwriting expert Kate Gladstone proposed an experiment: Write a paragraph twice: once using your natural, plain handwriting (barely joined) and once using conventional "join every letter" cursive, which is traditionally taught as the faster method. Which one is really faster?
Kate asked others to join her in this experiment. Each attempted the same writing sample twice, once joined and once not joined. How did it go? Join us to see!
