TypingMaster for Schools
You'd never hand a book to a pre-school child and expect her to teach herself to read.
IT education demands we do more than just show them how to surf the web. Why not teach them skills to give them a competitive edge now and into the future?
TypingMaster: the tool for making a real difference to your students' computer productivity.
Learning to type is easier than ever
TypingMaster teaches correct typing skills at the student's own pace, using tutorials, exercises and instant feedback. Its fun user interface and built-in intelligence give both student and teacher continuous feedback on improvement and areas needing further work. Progress is rewarded with fun practice games that reinforce newly acquired skills.
Designed for both teacher and student
Until now, most typing tutor packages have provided only a limited amount of feedback on training progress. But with its advanced Learning Optimiser Technology, TypingMaster adapts the lesson and practice structure dynamically, so each student's individual needs are met. Real-time reports give you a clear picture of every student's progress and problem areas. And you don't need to be a network guru to install TypingMaster on your network: an intelligent installation wizard looks after all the details.
With uniquely affordable pricing of both network and standalone licenses, TypingMaster is viable for even the tightest budgets.

"Many students can use it at one time and there can be a different student on the same computer the next period. Great for keeping individual records and has good statistics for each student. Price was a major factor in our choosing TypingMaster."
"The games!!! And the fact that they can print their stats and compete with others in the class."
Tony Nelson, Computing Co-ordinator, Corowa High School, N.S.W.
