Handwriting is the fourth skill, following listening, speaking, and reading, and remains crucial to date. According to research conducted in Norway and published in the Journal Frontiers in Psychology, handwriting builds confidence in students. The ‘Express Myself With My BIC Pen’ campaign works with schools across Kenya to train teachers on creative handwriting – a skill they can then teach their students. The program aims to enhance students’ handwriting skills and facilitate a smooth transition from graphite pencils to the precision of ballpoint pens as they embark on a new school phase. Handwriting remains a gateway to academic and personal success.
