The Course Entry score, Course Exit score, and Improvement score will show on the Final Grade Report. When the course is finished, the Course Exit timing should be taken.

If a student already can type 30 WPM, apply a higher grading scale of 50 WPM as the goal for each timed drill in each lesson. In additional to individualizing goals, accuracy standards, minimum speeds, etc., the number of lessons can also be individualized.įor experienced typists, use the 1-minute Course Entry timing. Standards can be individualized to each type of student so that each student is challenged: the special needs, beginning students, and experienced students can all be graded differently by applying different profiles appropriate for each student type. Course content is customizable, lessons can be removed, custom lessons can be added. There are 550+ predefined timed drills that are automatically scored and recorded when the student meets the standards set by the instructor (the instructor sets his/her own grading and accuracy standards).
