You may want to set your students’ pre-test levels before they begin
working in KeyWords. You can set each student’s level to Beginning
Typist, Intermediate Typist, or Advanced Typist. This determines what the
student will be asked to do in the test. To set the pre-test level, see
page 139.
Choosing Your Name, Starting Lessons, and Taking the
Pre-Test
After students have been added, they can begin working through the lessons.
The first lesson is an introductory overview to teach students how to sit
properly and where to place their hands on the keyboard. The other lessons
help students learn new keys, build speed and accuracy, and test their
proficiency.
Students can follow these steps to start work in the KeyWords SmartApplet.
