Honoring Mr. Gregg, today, June 17th, the anniversary of his birth….
I’ve been enjoying this book by Mr. Gregg this morning, http://books.google.com/books?id=RXQPAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA76&lpg=PA76&dq=%22John+Robert+Gregg+Society%22&source=bl&ots=hkExQ9dh4r&sig=ItpFh32E8pE0N_QRphb0Hpm0As4&hl=en&ei=P9k4SvHaHd-MtgewrojmDA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10#PPA42,M1 A small treatise to young teachers on teaching shorthand. A lovely example of his kindness, perspicacity, and charm. Wishing you all a happy celebration of Mr. Gregg’s birthday! (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
Shall we do something in honor of Mr. Gregg’s birthday?
What do you say to doing something here on the forum in honor of Mr. Gregg on June 17th? There’s a lot that could be said about his legacy to the world. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
Workbook for Shorthand Excellence, from the Civil Service Commission, 1971: pdf file
This refresher course was amongst the files I found earlier today: http://www.eric.ed.gov:80/ERICDocs/data/ericdocs2sql/content_storage_01/0000019b/80/37/86/90.pdf I’ll be working my way through this one, too! (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
List of studies/analyses of Gregg, with links
I’ve found many more of these studies. Rather than posting each of them singly, here is the link to the list. I used the advanced search function on the site with “Gregg, and shorthand”. Here is what came of that: http://www.eric.ed.gov:80/ERICWebPortal/Home.portal?_nfpb=true&ERICExtSearch_Operator_2=and&ERICExtSearch_SearchType_0=kw&ERICExtSearch_SearchValue_2=&ERICExtSearch_SearchValue_1=Shorthand&ERICExtSearch_Operator_1=and&ERICExtSearch_SearchType_1=kw&ERICExtSearch_PubDate_To=2009&ERICExtSearch_SearchValue_0=Gregg+&ERICExtSearch_SearchType_2=kw&ERICExtSearch_SearchCount=2&ERICExtSearch_PubDate_From=0&_pageLabel=ERICSearchResult&newSearch=true&rnd=1245074443812&searchtype=advanced# (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
Study analyzing changes in shorthand use during employment, 1966
Another interesting find: http://www.eric.ed.gov:80/ERICDocs/data/ericdocs2sql/content_storage_01/0000019b/80/38/30/eb.pdf I found the regional differences in use interesting, and the conclusions and recommendations. I was disappointed that only Simplified and DJS were included in the study, as I would like to know how those using Anniversary kept to the principles and rules. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
1964-64 study to determine speeds of Simplified and DJS
http://www.eric.ed.gov:80/ERICDocs/data/ericdocs2sql/content_storage_01/0000019b/80/34/f5/37.pdf Found this study today with a google search “Gregg shorthand”. I do like it when new things show up. Am still reading this, but wanted to post it. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
Gregg listed as half-geometric on this list
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Olympus/9593/hist.htm#Gregg%20(1888) Ran across this today. Interesting to see how someone thought these ought to be categorized. I’m sorry, I do not know why the links often post as “unclickable”. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)

For example, you can create a filter that will only show new messages from this forum. Give it a try. I already did and I…
