G7 Tech Class #21

First part of the class we will keep working on the Touch Typing exercises moving forward following the TextBook guidelines (starting at page #4 or from where you left last class). Work locally on a word processor (Word, Pages, text Edit, etc) practicing the different rows and letters in the keyboard.


Today you will start working on Design.

    • Test a variety of different touch typing applications and see which one better suits your learning style.
    • Explain the differences between all options you choose
    • For explaining the touch typing tutors you are using, please use different techniques like story boards, sketches, labelled diagrams with explanations, etc.
    • Evaluate each touch typing application critically against the design specifications (assess what design specs each one meets or not)




  • Design your own pangram
  • Choose one typing tutor to practice and achieve the goal: 40 wpm
  • Justify your choice of design and tool/app that you will be using
  • Design will be due next class. Look at Due Dates for Project 2 and plan accordingly.

  • Don't forget to make your 
    Process Journal entry of the day!
