What is it trying to do if not revive hand writing? Steve Jobs famous diss of the stylus back in 07 was due to the fact that capacitive screens allowed for accurate finger input. Prior phones needed a stylus for accurate input. He never foresaw the future - people do want to write on tablets and large screen formats. It's evident in the support across multiple software platforms and apps that convert handwriting to font. I take your point they are not trying to 'revive' it, but they are adapting their tech to real world uses.

I was a classroom assistant for 7 years. She's talking absolute crap when she says handwriting is too complicated to teach correctly. Several times I was assigned to help individual pupils with their handwriting and their ability improved significantly within two weeks. Instead of buying this, schools are better off hiring more support staff who can work with kids 1-to-1.
UncleFeedle i forgot we have specialists on RUclips. You certainly know that employing people with all the benefits, liabilities, etc is waaaaay more expensive than having the parents buying books for their kids right?!
when I was in school learning to write, we had to write each letter in both variants on 20 pages. 40 pages per latter (20 for lowercase 20 for capital) It was like printing. And we did this for each letter. You learn to write but it's tedious. But that's how they thought us. There is no way to fail at that.
Ludak021 I was born on mid-80s. Things were different back in the days. Nowadays kids are writing less and less. Its all about phones, tablets, keyboards.
@@nadominhoca I know, but that's in schools that tolerate distractions. Maybe it's me, but I prefer for kids basic education to go unhindered by stuff like phones and tablets in classes. I mean, to them those are toys, and I wasn't, and neither were you I'd bet, allowed to play with toys during class (if I'd have any in school for that matter). They should learn basics firsts, they will have plenty of time to forget how to write by hand later :)
That's the problem with most teachers I've spent time with outside of school. They tend to treat everyone like children. They never leave the classroom (mentally) and behave like holier-than-thou control freaks.
I’m a teacher and I despair that a lot of other teachers have that sort of infuriating streak. The problem begins when you treat kids like they’re kids. As soon as you start thinking “I am a teacher” in any sort of pervasive way, you’ve gone irretrievably insane. Having said that, I thought the lady was very charming and I felt sorry that she didn’t get investment.

Yeah, Deborah is the patent, and really paperwork, queen of that group of investors, I've yet to see any of the others skim through a pile of papers full of legalese writing but her.
At what point did Apple and Samsung ever see people's handwriting and think, "People can't write these days. I know! Let's make a stylus so they can be better at writing on screens!"
I love how the Dragons so often give real advice, even when they don't invest. Like Touker telling her she doesn't need to sell her equity to hire a salesforce.
That's what I love them. Yes, they can be hardasses from time to time and they have definitely been wrong on more than one occasion, but they will give helpful advice when they see that the entrepreneurs will benefit from it. In this case they knew it wasn't worth the risk and additional hassle for them or the teacher.

She's the type of teacher who wastes days on end getting kids to "write" properly. Later those kid will get an office job where they will never pick up a damn pen in years. My handwriting was always terrible and it didn't matter one tiny bit.
Same here I type much faster than writing, so I now write as fast as possible that only I and probably doctors can read. I got that one English teacher that forced us to learn how to write cursive, then the next year with roundhand (the very old English font in the 1600s style). I got a lower score with because of a bad handwriting, but then another student got a full score and spelled "excellence" as "ccclllccc" because it was more beautiful.

Ive worked with plenty of teachers and shes copying the very basics of every handwriting lesson. The books by Letts and other companies already exist, have a good reputation and have a big/massive market share.
She has a respectable business which can probably, with enough time and effort, scale to having a yearly 100k+ pounds net profit with a couple of other teachers and logistics people, becoming a decently profitable SME. Kudos to her.
I cringed so much. Explaining patents to Debra of all people. Was she expecting for Debra who is looking at the document to be like you are right, this document has the single use of the word patent. Despite looking at hundreds of these I needed you to point it out.
When I was at primary school I was taught italic writing which involves an exaggerated up-tick at the end of each letter. It was horrendously ugly. As soon as I moved to high school, I changed my writing entirely. I also had left-handed kids in my class who were made to write right-handed. It forced them to turn their wrist completely inwards to be able to write. Forcing a certain style of writing on a child is not always a good idea.
williamgeorgefraser same with my primary all handwriting had to be joined up and lettering had to look a certain way and my writing was awful I’m also left handed as well
We were taught the opposite. All of our writing had to be perfect, non-slanted, well-spaced chars with no flourishes or joins. I write with a natural slant, always have done, and it drove me to desperation every time my books came back with red circles, underlines and marks all over them, with points deducted, just because my handwriting wasn't perfect. Thing is I went to a Chinese-vernacular semi-private school, and Chinese chars have to be practiced and taught this way, as even a single extra tick or line could change the entire meaning, and slanting was the preserve of calligraphy. They evidently presumed that Roman alphabet could be taught the same way, and furthermore we had to be absolutely dogmatic about it. We never learned cursive, and were penalised if we ever wrote "messily". Our teachers would literally hold a ruler against our lines to check that spaces between letters within individual words, and spaces between words, didn't exceed or go under x number of millimetres. They even disabled the font options on the word processors on our (then very-rudimentary) computers so we would never learn that stylistic alternatives existed. It was horrendous. Once in secondary school, I found the penmanship with which I was most comfortable, and have basically written like that ever since. Apart from tending to be a bit small, no one has ever complained that they couldn't read my writing. And I'm proud to say it looks almost nothing like what I was taught.
she made 100k£ in 2 years by herself. WHAT A SOLID ENTREPRENEUR. I would be proud. Feels bad to see that she didn’t seem to understand what they meant by “this is not a business”. google says she’s doing really well for herself now. but it’s not a medium sized business yet by dragon scale
I think she could've taken this further or in another direction, she could've included an app that helped with this and help apply that towards design and such
If anything Touker dropping out is nicer than making an offer because he says she doesn't really need a Dragon and she can easily get more business negotiations already with a salesperson and keep all her equity.

Reasons for watching DD:
10% business ideas
20% Jenny jokes
70% Watching Peter & Theo get angry
Change business ideas to 70%, they're dumb half the time
5% bongo drums
@@darrylkemp3253 Haha of course!
What % Touker not getting out of bed for a low%?
Or trying to sell his London office space?
Or Tej building brands and asking people about themselves?
Or Deborah asking to see patents?
Or Peter asking for twice as much equity as the others and usually still getting the deal?
@@Ezichim 70% is way to much. Take it down to 40% and I will make you an offer
I'm going to treat the dragons like children.
What could possibly go wrong?
‘It’s great to have you behind me’ *Toukers eyes light up*
We had pen licenses at my school and you had to write impeccably with a pencil to earn one. It was an honour to own one.
We did too but my handwriting was so small they had to give me a pen
Back to full length videos - thanks guys!
As a teacher that has taught pre K all the way up to law school, I can definitively say that this is unnecessary.
4:07 this has been your friendly neighborhood Tej-shaking-his-head-watch reporting.
10:25 Jenny "I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS"
That made me snort. I love all of Jenny's reasons for not investing. They never make any sense but they're all funny
DEBORAH: Are you sure you've got a patent? Can I see the patent?
PITCHER: I'm out.
"There are too many complicated alphabeticals" Laughs in Japanese.
What rubbish.
wwwwwwww
@@maccoll3644 What do you mean "what rubbish"? You try learning the strokes and stroke orders for all of the Kanji for even just the JLPT level 1. The other Japanese alphabets are actually quite straightforward, but Kanji is many times more complex than English alphabet characters.
“So unique and so iniv-itiv”.
British accents eh
@@unm0vedm0ver No
@@palimpsestransparent yea.
Jenny goes to the board and writes: I'm out.
DevotionsVisage has me laughing 😂
''It's great to have you behind me'' and the way she said that 😂😂😂 9:12
Debra went full teacher mode on the teacher "lee lee focus"
Touker: "its either that or me get a day job with her"
Peter: "yeah i'll tell you what, she got out of that one"
Savage 😆😆😆😆😆😆
Jenny: I've been writing lots of notes, and for that reason, my ink's out.
In my experience a lot of teachers speak to everybody as if they were their students - and I worked in schools!
From the beginning I can’t stand her 😭
Same 😬
Me too
Ive worked with plenty of teachers and shes copying the very basics of every handwriting lesson. The books by Letts and other companies already exist, have a good reputation and have a big/massive market share.
i cringed when she said she’s going to treat the dragons like children 💀
"Samsung followed suit."
Yeah. They followed suit several years before Apple invested in their pen.
The note series
I mean, she thought the idea of a stylus was to enhance have writing, so she clearly has no clue what age is on about
"I'm Jenny and I'd like to make you an offer for all the money."
Jenny wakes up. "My god, what a nightmare".
Hahaa! Good one :D
She has a respectable business which can probably, with enough time and effort, scale to having a yearly 100k+ pounds net profit with a couple of other teachers and logistics people, becoming a decently profitable SME. Kudos to her.
Deborah's sense of humor is gold. omg.
Toukers very knowing smirk 😏 when she said it would be great to have you behind me
Well he's a man who's handled some very heavy boobs.
Jenny: I have no problem with writing or spelling, and for that reason, im owt
yeah right luv - theirs nowt rong wiv my spellyn eether
The number of people that come on here thinking they have a patent when in fact they don't is staggering!
"It's great to have you behind me " 🙊 that's what she said
How childish of me
Touker is sooo flirting with her here, look at him giggle
3:57
It gave me anxiety when she said she’d treat the dragons like children. I nearly couldn’t watch.
"Patent, look the word patent!" 😂
I cringed so much. Explaining patents to Debra of all people. Was she expecting for Debra who is looking at the document to be like you are right, this document has the single use of the word patent. Despite looking at hundreds of these I needed you to point it out.
Harry Potter’s aunt.
When I was at primary school I was taught italic writing which involves an exaggerated up-tick at the end of each letter. It was horrendously ugly. As soon as I moved to high school, I changed my writing entirely. I also had left-handed kids in my class who were made to write right-handed. It forced them to turn their wrist completely inwards to be able to write. Forcing a certain style of writing on a child is not always a good idea.
' Forcing a certain style of writing on a child is not always a good idea.' - here here good sir
williamgeorgefraser same with my primary all handwriting had to be joined up and lettering had to look a certain way and my writing was awful I’m also left handed as well
Consider yourself lucky, children these days can hardly read and write by the time they reach secondary school
@@samuelbaldwin3531 Utter nonsense...and this woman's idea wouldn't solve actual literacy issues anyway.
We were taught the opposite. All of our writing had to be perfect, non-slanted, well-spaced chars with no flourishes or joins. I write with a natural slant, always have done, and it drove me to desperation every time my books came back with red circles, underlines and marks all over them, with points deducted, just because my handwriting wasn't perfect. Thing is I went to a Chinese-vernacular semi-private school, and Chinese chars have to be practiced and taught this way, as even a single extra tick or line could change the entire meaning, and slanting was the preserve of calligraphy. They evidently presumed that Roman alphabet could be taught the same way, and furthermore we had to be absolutely dogmatic about it.
We never learned cursive, and were penalised if we ever wrote "messily". Our teachers would literally hold a ruler against our lines to check that spaces between letters within individual words, and spaces between words, didn't exceed or go under x number of millimetres. They even disabled the font options on the word processors on our (then very-rudimentary) computers so we would never learn that stylistic alternatives existed. It was horrendous. Once in secondary school, I found the penmanship with which I was most comfortable, and have basically written like that ever since. Apart from tending to be a bit small, no one has ever complained that they couldn't read my writing. And I'm proud to say it looks almost nothing like what I was taught.
I wouldnt really want her to teach my children.
Yeah she comes off as way too smug.
Unfortunately I was "taught" by people like this
Tony Johnstone she’s smug
@@tonyjohnstone7635 She seemed childish, ignorant and patronising.
She would be a fine teacher imo. for younger kids at least
Finally! An episode I haven't seen :0!!!
7:15 when the teacher sais take out your homework and you know you didnt do it
Beginning "So when I go into the den, I'm going to treat..." Hearing these words I knew I would be in for one treat of an episode.
*Hears the lift doors about to open* Jenny: I'm out!
At 9:09
Her: aww but it's great to have you behind me...
Touker smiles like a Coronavirus, keeping his thoughts to himself
They should have asked her the breakdown of her revenue. I think something is not adding up.
she made 100k£ in 2 years by herself. WHAT A SOLID ENTREPRENEUR. I would be proud.
Feels bad to see that she didn’t seem to understand what they meant by “this is not a business”. google says she’s doing really well for herself now. but it’s not a medium sized business yet by dragon scale
I really respect when Peter recognizes he is wrong.
Very much so, didn’t see that coming
The best thing by far in Dragons Den is the narrator.
7:58 Debrah is now educating a child
08:58 Touker - "What, with a magic wand??" 🤣🤣
I think she could've taken this further or in another direction, she could've included an app that helped with this and help apply that towards design and such
Jenny actually wrote "I'm out" the timing of the words is a perfect fit for her writing
If anything Touker dropping out is nicer than making an offer because he says she doesn't really need a Dragon and she can easily get more business negotiations already with a salesperson and keep all her equity.
Jenny looked at if the business had legs, but used her legs to walk out
That's got to be the best Jenny is out comment yet
