41. About Us - In The News The LittleFingers® keyboard provides the tool to help teachers overcome this One keyboard fits all no matter what computer system the child uses now, http://www.datadesktech.com/media_news_2.html

Home Media Center The New Educational Tool That Gives Children the Competitive Edge in Learning Proper Keyboarding and Touch Typing Skills Research indicates that young children are also prone to developing repetitive stress problems due to their increased time using a computer. Using a keyboard that causes them to stretch their smaller hands can only exacerbate this predisposition to injury. LittleFingers® helps reduce the possibility of injury by allowing children to learn proper typing techniques on a keyboard that has been scientifically designed to fit their smaller hands and fingers. By using a keyboard that "fits," children are more apt to learn proper keyboarding faster and easier, and will have less of a chance to develop poor keyboarding habits that can hinder rather than enhance their future computing experience. Teachers Can plug in a second keyboard and mouse for side-by-side instruction LittleFingers® is not a toy—it is technically superior to any of the so-called plastic "kiddy" keyboards on the market. It is a full-function keyboard that has all the features of adult keyboards—and a lot more—only in a smaller format. Outside of its patented layout, one of LittleFingers® many unique features is its "dual-mode" capability which allows a second or adult-sized keyboard to be plugged into it and permits both keyboards to be used simultaneously! This enables parents, teachers or other students to work side-by-side as a hands-on typing coach or buddy to help children learn proper keyboarding skills and/or participate in joint, interactive computing activities together. This exclusive feature not only empowers children to emulate their teachers and parents, but it also promotes bonding and builds rapport with parents and teachers alike.

Utah K-12 Keyboarding Keyboarding Research Assessment Research Resources Software ... Tips The Micro in the Media Center by Joanne Troutner The Issue of Teaching Typing When can or should students be taught to type? Most media specialists will be drawn into this debate as students continue to use microcomputers for an ever-broadening list of tasks. There is no doubt that learning to type at an early age removes one of the stumbling blocks young students find when attempting to use computers. For this reason, library media specialists are going to see keyboarding or typing become part of the elementary curriculum. The days of finding typing classes only in high school business departments are coming to an end. Although extremely young children lack the dexterity and hand size to master tough typing, students of fourth or fifth grade age can learn this technique. Here are some teaching ideas and suggested materials for the elementary typing class. Either of these keyboards can be used to introduce students to the home keys - A, S, D, F, J, K, L, ;. When the students have been drilled on these keys, the space bar, carriage return, and shift keys can be introduced. Students can keep track of the keys as they learn them by coloring them in with a magic marker.

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.

EdTech'90 Contents EdTech Confs Starting Think-Keying Uni Carnegie South Australian College of Advanced Education Can you write as fast as you think? Many people are not as productive as they could be because they are using old technology such as pencil and paper, or they are using new technology inefficiently by 'hunting and pecking'. This paper describes the evolution of a program to enable people to become proficient in basic typing as quickly as possible and with the minimum of pain. Communicating words via an electronic keyboard is an everyday fact of life. For convenience people often refer to what they are doing as 'typing', even though they are not using a typewriter. The basic keyboarding skills are the same whether one is using a manual typewriter or a computer. Because the skill of typing has traditionally been denigrated, the majority of people learning to use computers in Australia have resisted learning touch typing. One can make the analogy that car drivers do not look to see where the brake pedal or gears are - if they did, the results could be quite spectacular. We teach people of all ages to acquire skills and encourage them to practise in order to hone those skills, be they playing a musical instrument or playing a sport - and yet many teachers think there is no need to teach their students to touch type and think-key.

MarvelSoft's flagship product is Talking Typing Teacher , a revolutionary new typing program that's ideal for home or classroom use. Built from the ground up with blind and visually impaired students in mind, Talking Typing Teacher features digitized human speech , which is used everywhere in the program. This means that whether you're navigating menus, changing options, managing dozens of student accounts, or visiting the Help Desk, you'll enjoy listening to Eager Eddie read the screen. What makes TTT so special, however, is that each and every typing lesson or practice session is read aloud with clear, concise pre-recorded dialog. Put quite simply, you won't need to worry about trying to understand synthetic speech when you're learning to type with TTT. The only thing Text-To-Speech is really used for is to read your name and play back text you type into Workbook, a fully-functional talking word processor that ships with Talking Typing Teacher. But that's not all! TTT easily accommodates the specific needs of all visually impaired typists. With just a few clicks of the mouse, you can pick from dozens of fonts, change the size of text, and decide how heavy the print should be, (not to mention achieving the ideal color contrast by selecting from thirty different background and text colors). These options ensure that everyone will get the most out of Talking Typing Teacher. Whether you're reading the screen or letting Eager Eddie do the reading for you, you'll have the chance to learn to type, and enjoy doing so!

Tech Trends Archive Article Tech Trends - Industry Articles Using Speech Recognition to Prevent Middle School Keyboard Injuries For Alice, Miguel, and Mandy the pains of carpal tunnel syndrome came early. (Their names have been changed to protect their privacy.) For this trio, RSI symptoms began in their elementary typing classes. By the time they reached a required seventh grade keyboarding class their pains were getting worse. For Alice, ten minutes of warm-up practice on the keyboard would cause pain for up to three hours afterwards. One worried mother refused to sign the course disclosure agreement for keyboarding writing the following comment on the back of the form: "The reason this is late is because I have refused to sign it. It is no fault of Miguel. I am not signing away my right to hold the school responsible if he gets carpal tunnel." Public awareness and parental attitudes are changing when it comes to these long-term repetitive motion nerve disorders. Miguel's mother suffers with carpal tunnel syndrome. She has seen the early warning signs in her son and wants him to avoid long-term problems. She is not alone in her concern for her son's well being. There are hereditary predispositions to these debilitating repetitive motion disorders. Other afflicted parents have approached this Utah middle school's computer teacher pleading, "Please don't let my child go through the pains I've suffered."

Compared to the classroom teacher, the private music instructor has a tremendous advantage. The private teacher typically works with one student at a time, and when the private teacher works with groups, the number of students usually is small. This allows us the opportunity to become intimately acquainted with each student's learning style and tailor our instruction accordingly. If we do our job well, we send each student home with a perfectly matched assignment and brilliantly conceived instructions for efficient, daily practice. The unfortunate aspect of private instruction is we usually see each child just one time per week. That means most of our students' musical learning takes place outside the bounds of our direct instruction. I am willing to wager that most teachers would agree their students' practice would be demonstrably improved by expert supervision. Some kids actually receive such supervision from knowledgeable and involved parents. Many other children, however, spend a lot of practice time working inefficientlyat bestor counterproductivelyat worst.

LRC History - **UPDATE COMING SOON!** LRC Director Emeritus Duane M. Rumbaugh is a comparative psychologist whose research into the nature of the learning and language processes of primates, in relation to their brain evolution and development, dates back to 1958 when he conducted research with the great apes at the San Diego Zoo and with monkeys at San Diego State College. He served as chairman of the Psychology Department and as Regents' Professor of Psychology and Biology at Georgia State University from 1971 until his retirement in 2000. From 1969 to 1971 he served as Associate Director and Chief of Behavior at the Yerkes Regional Primate Center of Emory University. In 1971, Rumbaugh initiated the Lana Chimpanzee Language Project and led the development of a computer-monitored keyboard for that and other projects which have followed to this day at the LRC. Similar keyboards are used by researchers in Japan and also at Disney World. Some of the projects have included children and young adults whose language development was compromised by mental retardation. In 1981 he helped found the university's Language Research Center and served as its director until the summer of 2001. Rumbaugh received his master's degree from Kent State University in 1951 and his Ph.D. in general-experimental psychology from the University of Colorado, Boulder, in 1955. He has had continuous grant support from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development since 1971 to the present. Other agencies to support his research have been NSF and NASA.
