#TYPING AGENT UPDATE#
5th graders promoting to Carmel Middle School are expected to be able to type 25 wpm with 100% accuracy.Typing Agent 5.0 is our biggest and most exciting update to date. This means 15 wpm for 3rd graders, 20 wpm for 4th graders, and 25 wpm for 5th graders. The district goal for typing speed is 5 wpm (words per minute) per grade level.
#TYPING AGENT HOW TO#
We do have speed and accuracy goals for each grade level, but those are secondary to having students learn how to use home row correctly. This means using all of their fingers, having them rest on the appropriate keys in the middle (or "home") row, and using the correct finger for each key. Specifically, a touch typist will know their location on the keyboard through muscle memory" ().

More important than speed and accuracy, it is important that students become "touch" typists:"Touch typing (also called touch type or touch keyboarding) is typing without using the sense of sight to find the keys. Those who practice for as little as 10 or 15 minutes, three to four times a week, will see a dramatic improvement in their typing skills. It is strongly recommended that students should practice typing at home. Unfortunately, this time at school spent practicing is hardly adequate to the task. Classroom teachers may, at their discretion, allow students time during class for typing practice. Regular practice is essential in the development of the skill of typing students will, during their computer time, usually type/practice for ten minutes prior to engaging in other computer technology activities. Students may access their accounts to practice keyboarding at home student progress is tied to the Typing Agent account, not to any particular device/computer.
