I will go one further:

I think calligraphy should be taught not just cursive. Typography is the oldest form of graphic design and solving design problems is very beneficial to any education IMO. It is a skill that drives innovation, something we need dearly.

On a related note:

How many are aware that a single space after periods and other concluding punctuation is now becoming standard? MLA states that it is preferred and the Chicago Style Manual says it's standard. It has to do with the fact that most fonts are no longer monospaced.
