From the Editor:
The Ministry of Education in Iceland is introducing italic
handwriting in schools. That is the result of pressure from
teachers who were dissatisfied with the style they had, a
copperplate-based business hand.
A group of Icelandic teachers who are interested in experimental
teaching of italic formed a working party last year, They were
interested in the method and asked Briem to put together
instructions that could be used with children by teachers who had
little or no experience with italic.
The members of the working party initially paid for the printing
out of their own pockets. Dr. Gunnlaugur S.E. Briem donated
his work. The scheme has been very well received. Letters of
support have come in from handwriting experts in many parts of
the world, Education authorities in other countries have suggested
collaboration.
This year the Icelandic method was cited for excellence by the
New York Type Directors Club. It is now on exhibit at the Leipzig
Book Fair under the banner “Best designed books from all over
the world”. The French Ministry of Education has recently
brought out a large study, compiled by Jean Larcher, (Les Outils
de l’Ecriture leurs Usages Sociaux. Comité sur l’Ecriture,
Ministere de l’Education Nationale, Paris, 1985) on excellence
in lettering. It shows only one example on the teaching of
handwriting to children, the Icelandic method.
