SuperKids Software Review of Typing Software. In fact, typing programs were among the first educational PC titles developed. The one advantage that a traditional classroom typing course has over all of these programs, is the watchful eye of a teacher, discouraging the tendency most beginners have to look at their hands and not the screen or paper.
Users immediately begin to type, following a program of lessons and graduated drills.
There are a few nods to entertainment, but for the most part students focus on the task at hand and the intrinsic rewards of a lesson learned and a job well-done. Twenty-two lessons illustrate everything from proper posture and hand position, to the correct finger selection for every key on the keyboard, including numbers and punctuation. A motivated student who goes through all the lessons, will learn to type. This is a solid instructional program, with a well-structured approach to teaching, practicing, and testing. Not a lot of fun, but effective.
