[LM_NET] MID: keyboarding

[Robie Martin <rmartin@VIKINGNET.NET>]

As we finalize our 6th-grade Keyboarding curriculum, we would like to know what 
kinds of things are 
considered most important for students of this age to master.  This is a 
semester-long class.  The 
instructor follows a commercial program, but adds many extras to enhance the class 
such as simple 
flyers, reponse paragraphs to a news artlcle, etc.  As  you think about your middle 
school-age library 
patrons, what keyboarding skills do you think are most important for that age?

I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into 
the other room and read a book.
