Mecanografía 101 - Mecanografía 1 - Aprenda a mecanografiar: campo de entrenamiento de mecanografía al tacto 4x/2 semanas

In this eight-lesson introduction to keyboarding, students will explore the computer keyboard and learn touch typing—typing without looking at the keys. This course will build a solid foundation of correct typing techniques, covering all letter keys and punctuation, and utilizing all ten fingers. Our goal is to introduce proper techniques and guide learners through practice sessions to build muscle memory for efficient typing.

The teacher will create an EduTyping account for each student. Username and passwords will be sent to parents the day before class begins. Students may need assistance logging into their EduTyping account. Instructions for setting up learner devices will be available upon enrollment.

📌 Camera Policy: To ensure proper typing technique and provide accurate feedback, cameras must remain on for the duration of class. This allows me to observe hand positioning, posture, and key usage to support your progress. If accommodations are needed, please contact me before class.

The teacher will wait in the classroom for 10 minutes for students to arrive.
