How the art of handwriting is bowing down to technology
Whether it is everyday handwriting or their personal signature, each person has their own unique style of handwriting. Even identical twins sharing appearance and genetics do not have the same handwriting. A person’s handwriting is tantamount to their fingerprints: people might be able to copy it, but never write it in an identical manner.
Experts are of the opinion that the place where one grows up and the first language one learns melt together with the different distribution of force and ways of shaping words to create a unique style of handwriting for each person.
As such, handwriting of a person can be used to verify the writer’s identity while the deterioration of a person’s handwriting is also a symptom or result of certain diseases.
Today in the world of technological advancement people have been less in touch with handwriting as suggests people from different professions. Some parts of the world have advanced a lot with technology and even Bangladesh is going to be digital. People in general are not used to writing on paper but in electronic devices. Very few people maintain dairies, and some who love the habit have even shifted to preserving memories in the digital format.
Many schools, colleges and universities of the country are also giving away laptops to students. Although there are traditional note takings, use of note book and sitting for hours-long exams, many institutions are changing the year old practice.
Courses are being introduced online and virtual classroom is becoming popular. Bangladesh has more than 10 popular online classrooms, India has been advertising the concept with special emphasis for the last two years. Sri Lanka and Pakistan are also appreciating the concept, as found in different reports, while the developed countries are way ahead for such steps.

Rohingya: Walk A Mile In Their Shoes
My reminiscences of Cox’s Bazar are deeply rooted in my childhood during family vacations taken with my parents and three siblings - horse rides on the beach, sunsets against the widest horizon, charcoal barbecues by nightfall, and copious amounts of seafood throughout our stays. My recent trip to Cox’s Bazar, some 20 odd years later, however, was starkly contrasting in that the circumstance was dire, one which continues to sit steep in my mind.
