Item Restricted This Is My Handwriting : a Study of How Children's Relationship to Handwriting Is Changing and What it Means for the Future of Typography(2023) Tide Laura Stenseng-Molven; Thoma, Sascha; Wittner, Ben; Faculty of Architecture and Design; Berlin International University of Applied SciencesAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: In an increasingly digitized world, the role of handwriting in education and its impact on typography is undergoing a transformative shift. This thesis aims to address the evolving significance of handwriting by focusing on three key areas: its role in education, its influence on individual identity, and its relevance in the field of typography. The research specifically targets the Latin Script and takes a geographic focus on Norway and Germany, while also incorporating studies from other countries for a comprehensive analysis. In a milieu where digital competence is highly prized, the study explores what could be gained or lost as handwriting becomes a declining practice. By drawing upon both historical perspectives and current societal values, the thesis seeks to provide a nuanced understanding of handwriting's place in the digital age, particularly concerning its cognitive, cultural, and artistic implications.
