Some people say that with the new technology there is no need to develop handwriting skills anymore. Others believe that it is still necessary to teach handwriting. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

With the advancement of technology, we have do not have to do any work manually nowadays. Everything is automatic with a click of a button or through our speech. Some

people

believe that learning and developing handwriting skills is not required nowadays,

on the contrary

others believe that it is mandatory to be taught. I support the former idea as more the time we will spend in learning

this

skill can be spent on learning some important skill.

To begin

with, there is a group of

people

who strongly feel that learning handwriting is a waste of time as science has given us a boom of the latest mechanization. Today, after the advent of computers and laptops, we hardly get a chance to write.

Moreover

, we have a new technique of speech recognition in the market. All gadgets are prebuilt with

this

feature now,

for instance

, Siri in apple mobiles. In the present day, all the jobs

such

as those of accountant and much more which required manual work of maintaining records in the file are done in computers.

Hence

handwritten things are rarely left.

On the contrary

, some

people

consider even though

such

high-tech gadgets are there still there is a need to develop the art of handwriting. Like other art forms,

this

should

also

be given due importance. So to inculcate

this

habit various strategies can be thought of,

for example

, calligraphy competitions should be held and awards should be given so that more

people

are attracted towards it. To sum up, I partially accept that

people

should be taught handwriting provided there is a need for it. Despite

people

can focus various other skills rather than

this

which will be useful to them in long run.

Although

a minimum focus should be given on

this

during school time.
