The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
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)
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)
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)
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)
I ran across this site today: http://www.nypl.org/research/chss/spe/rbk/faids/greggj.pdf I apologize for not being able to get the link to be clickable. Has anyone been to the New York Public Library to see this collection? It would be wonderful to be able to see these things. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
This is from my hard-drive, and, knowing me, I did some trimming and reformatting, since it was for my on use, so it may be missing some of the fine print. I thought I first got it at our old home on MSN, but I can’t find it here. Someone put a lot of work…
Attachment: Factors of Shorthand Speed.pdf
Here is a document I had created a while back too, but was unable to post in MSN, due to file size limitations. It contains covers of several Gregg Shorthand books, and it is classified by Series. Could you please let me know if I had missed a book? I would like to keep this…
