typing software
All the Right Type Three offers basic keyboarding instruction in a simple but effective multi-level format. Students begin by learning correct finger reach, technique and posture in a series of interactive tutorials found in the "Learning Lab". Each of these lessons is then reinforced in the "Practice Pavillion", where users can choose standard drills or the optional game mode. Further development occurs in the "Skill Building" area, which features speed and accuracy drills for each lesson. Students can test their progress in the "Testing Center", which tracks the user's speed, overall accuracy and problem areas, and reports the results in the "Records Library". Finally, the "Word Processing Plaza" opens a word processing application to allow students to create and save their own documents. The default word processor is Simple Text for Macintosh users, and Word Pad for Windows users. This default can be easily changed from the File Menu options.
Regardless of the edition chosen, multiple student files can be maintained by the teacher. The only real limitation here is the size of the computer hard drive. A "Maintenance" area allows teachers to customize lessons, and monitor and evaluate student progress. Creating customized drill files is simple, and allows instructors to incorporate key curriculum vocabulary in student drills.
