:Thank you! Please, can someone add a picture for the "Lateinische Ausgangsschrift" and the "Schulausgangsschrift", which were in use in Germany in the 1950s and 1960s? I don't have any, but would much appreciate those!

== "In a 2022 article in The Atlantic, historian and former Harvard University president Drew Gilpin Faust noted that the Gen Z never learned to read and write cursive." ==

This line seems like a bit of a generalisation, especially considering the article source says "Who else can’t read cursive? I asked the class. The answer: about two-thirds.", and focuses on the declining rate of cursive. I understand that "GEN Z NEVER LEARNED TO READ CURSIVE" is the article's title, but it implies that no schools teach cursive anymore. I would make a change to the article myself, but I am not a very experienced Wikipedia editor yet. Does anyone else have thoughts?

:I agree, it is a huge and inaccurate generalization without significant evidence. Common Core is blamed for the decline of cursive, but the oldest of Gen Z would have already been 14 when it was implemented. It also is inconsistent state to state and school to school.

== Upright  ==

Upright cursive—non-slanted cursive—should be added. [[User:The Old Macintosh|The Old Macintosh]] ([[User talk:The Old Macintosh|talk]]) 10:09, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
