Keyboarding assessments essay

If you don't like a test prompt, you can get a different (random) prompt with the "change test" button - or select a specific paragraph to type from the list below. To find out how fast you type, just start typing in the blank textbox on the right of the test prompt. You will see your progress, including errors on the left side as you type.

You don’t have to consciously think about where the fingers go. Touch typing makes you faster. This, in turn, means you will be more productive, as it takes you less time to do tasks so you can take on more work or assignments, or alternatively spend less time sitting at a computer. Automatizing the process improves the quality of your writing too.

That’s because in a multi-sensory course, such as Touch-type Read and Spell, the learning process reinforces phonics. Students hear a word spoken, see the word on the screen and then type it. This helps them with the sound-letter mapping required for decoding and spelling.

If you need to restart the test, delete the text in the text box. Interactive feedback shows you your current wpm and accuracy. In order to complete the test and share your results, you need to get 100% accuracy.
