First Quarter: Students will review the computer keyboard using the touch method. Students will be introduced to the numeric keypad. Proper keyboarding techniques and one-minute writings will be the basis for determining a quarter grade. The effort grade will be based on the student’s ability to key using proper techniques—no peeking!
