Nowadays, with the growing popularity of computers, teachers, students or their parents are paying less and less attention to handwriting.

According to a recent survey, about 85.5 percent of middle school students think that their handwriting is poor. Yet for various reason , many students don’t want to improve their handwriting. 51.5 percent of students think that they can just use a computer, so it is no need to waste time improve their handwriting, and 32.3 percent believe that we are so busy with the study as they do not have time to practise. 10.9 percent think that practising handwriting is useless.
