　　a thing of the past.With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones，writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic (怀旧的)skill.Howeverandwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful—both in school and in life.

　　Virginia Berninger，professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington，says it's important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.

　　Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks—both on a computer and by hand.The study，published in 2009，found that when writing with a pen and paper，participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.

　　In a more recent study，Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write.“Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary，word meaning and concepts.It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.

　　Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screenwords，says Berninger，but also to spot(发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.
