KeyRight Learning System Parents Students Business Managers Teachers ... contact us Why do we give young children computer keyboards, but not teach them basic keyboard skills until high school? Keyboard skills are now essential in education and in the work place. By giving children the opportunity to learn and master the keyboard the KeyRight way, you are giving them a head start. Learning with a KeyRight keyboard allows fast and fun learning. The KeyRight Learning System is easy to use. The finger-key zones are identified by color. Simply using the KeyRight keyboard correctly develops the correct motor skills, muscle memory and hand-eye coordination for fast, accurate and safe typing. The KeyRight Learning System will give your child the skills to be a proficient keyboard user without even trying. Even if your child appears to be comfortable on a regular keyboard, a KeyRight keyboard encourages correct typing technique, essential if keying is to be safe and efficient. COMPUTER LITERACY STARTS WITH KEYBOARD SKILLS University trials showed the KeyRight keyboard is up to 192% more effective for learning to key correctly than using a regular keyboard.

Parents Students Business Managers Teachers ... contact us Frequently Asked Questions about KeyRight Tutor Is the KeyRight Tutor Method based on the Qwerty 101 keyboard? Does the KeyRight Tutor Method use the Home Keys Technique? KeyRight Tutor vs. voice recognition technology Why do we make the distinction between typing and keyboard skills? ... Return to KeyRight Tutor Home Q1: Is the KeyRight Tutor Method based on the Qwerty 101 keyboard? A: Yes. "Qwerty" comes from the first six keys of the top letter row. The KeyRight Tutor Method overcomes some ofthe inefficiencies of the layout. '101' comes from the 101 keystrokes that can be produced from the 50 keys. Q2: Does the KeyRight Tutor Method use the Home Keys Technique? A: Definitely NO. The KeyRight Tutor Method bypasses the Home Keys Techniques with the Direct Reach Method aimed at the Key-Finger Groups used by expert typists. The Home Keys Technique requires keeping at least one finger of the left hand on the A-S-D-F keys and at least one finger of the right hand on the J-K-L-; keys while reaching for all the other keys. This makes half of the strokes involved in normal text generation awkward and some physiologically impossible. The KeyRight Tutor Method makes all keystrokes uniformly easy to reach (relative to the arrangement of the Qwerty keyboard). Also, there is the possibility that the Home Keys Technique is a contributor to Repetitive Strain Injury due to the awkward key strokes and the faulty mind-mapping and accumulated stress from performance anxiety.

Then I point to several areas in which the study is quite strong. With this information in mind, I address each of the three original research questions individually. I integrate the experimental results of this study with earlier findings, apply this knowledge to the questions, and make suggestions for instruction, policy, and further research. Top Shortcomings of the study Fundamental to the present study was the provision of "regular opportunity for keyboarding drill and practice." It is at least questionable whether this condition was ever really met during the period of study, a serious shortcoming.

Practice Typing Test Some state jobs require production typing/keyboarding skills of 40 words per minute or greater. Other jobs are not production typing jobs, and do not require typing skills of 40 words per minute. For those jobs that do require typing skills, it is likely you will be asked to take a typing test at the time of an interview, or to take a certificate of your typing skills with you verifying your ability to type at a net speed of 40 words per minute, after errors. Generally, applicants will take a typing/keyboarding test on a computer keyboard. It is recommended that you practice and build up your typing speed before scheduling the test.

Any suggestions for putting in place a curriculum for this grade level? Thanks Shairon Burton sburton@thezone.net Summary of responses: As far as keyboarding applications are concerned, responses suggested the following: Mavis Beacon that works as a practice situation where students plug into the programme and practice through screen prompts. The Almena System used in some Ontario schools. However, the site reference http://www.workingworld.ca/graphics/almenag.htm is business oriented and you would have to contact the company for educational information. More generally, learning keyboarding skills should be placed within the broader context of computer skills necessary as exit profiles at particular grade levels.

50. Computer As Writing Assistant how to take advantage of all the computer has to out in your academic courses and learn some keyboarding skills. the ability to use the keyboard with speed and http://webster.commnet.edu/grammar/composition/computer.htm

Computer as Writing Assistant More Than a Fancy Typewriter If your document is really important or private, learn to keep copies in a safe place, away from nasty weather and electromagnetic fields (like some scissors or paperclips and those magnetic closers on cabinet doors). Also, get in the habit of checking the disc drive before you leave the computer station. Carefully saving your documents on a floppy doesn't do much good if you leave it in the disc drive and the next person who uses the lab accidentally blows away your precious text or helps himself to a free floppy disc. As you enter the Editing and Rewriting phases of writing your paper and you begin to move blocks of text around and delete material or insert new paragraphs here and there, it might be a good idea to begin to save subsequent drafts of your paper. Label the draft files systematically and simply: ozone_1.doc, ozone_2.doc, etc. The reason for this is that we sometimes "blow away" something that is quite good and when we want to retrieve it, it's gone if we constantly over-ride a single saved document. (A distinct disadvantage of digital writing!) A high-density floppy disc should be able to hold many versions of several text documents.

Recommend to potential buyers: yes Full review This is worth buying, even if only to keep the kids quiet for a bit, and at only 29.89 (Argos, p972), not that expensive either. My son James,2, was brought this for his first birthday by a relative, when I seen it, I thought, no way will he stay interested for long enough, let alone actually play with it, but he loves it, in fact I have trouble getting on my own computer! Fisher-Price Baby Smartronics Computer Learning System is suitable for children 9m+, which at first I thought was a bit too young, but James took to it straight away, he loves it. IT has extra large very colourful keys, 9 letter keys ( ABC-DEF-GHI-JKL-MN-OPQ-RST-UVW-XYZ), 10 number keys (1-10) and space bar, set out as a normal keyboard, it also has a rollerball to act as a mouse and a mobile phone and 3 shape keys.

Keyboard Skills NL Résumé, summary Much effective time is lost during the practice of information technology within the several subjects due to a lack of keyboard skills. As computers are used within many subjects, these subjects contribute to a series of typing classes. The school benefits most of the typing skills if pupils attain their skills in grade 1. Therefore, 25 typing classes are given to the pupils of grade 1 within the timetable in the first months of the school year, without having Typing as a subject. The framework is such that the computer leads the class and that each teacher is able to assist.

Front page Lesson Plans Technology Typing for Beginners Download the "KEYBOARD" PDF Adobe Acrobat Reader Although I had lessons in keyboarding a number of years ago, it isn't as if I sat down in a typing class every day and just learned to type. Yet these days, I have to admit that I am thankful for my keyboarding lessons. Had it not been for the fundamentals that I learned, such as finger positioning and the "proper" movement to strike certain keys, I assure you that my time spent at a keyboard would have been far more frustrating. I do not claim to be some sort of master typist, and I would note that all of us are always working to improve our skill level. You obviously can't expect your fourth graders to suddenly start typing all of their homework before turning it in, but you can teach a building block that will help them master typing in the long run. The placement of one's fingers on the keyboard is key when learning how to type. While it will require lots and lots of practice before your students begin to feel that they're typing with any sort of speed, you can accomplish a lot prior to the practice that only a typewriter or computer and time can provide.
