Course Description
Keyboarding is a course taken by all 6th grade students.
Students learn the proper keying position for all keys. A program called Typing Time will be used for an introduction and to reinforce understanding of all keys. Students will also be introduced to simple documents including memorandums, letters, and reports by using Microsoft Word.
Class Expectations
Students are expected to participate in discussions, keyboarding practice drills, and everyday activities. They should see an increase in keying speed and accuracy by the end of the 6 weeks. A pass/fail grade is given for the course.
Weekly Assignments
Due to the hands on nature of this class, homework will be extremely minimal. However, students can always practice the correct keying position by using their keyboards at home. If and when homework is assigned, it will be posted below.
