Students using Keyboarding Without Tears are regularly assessed for speed and accuracy as they type. Progress in these areas is assessed through Spot Checks for Speed and Accuracy, which students will practice throughout their 36-week instruction.
Depending on the grade level, students will be assessed through skill checks in their ability to type letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs.
Coming this January, a dedicated module will build online test-taking skills for students in grades 3–5. In these new activities, students will practice common online testing questions using skills that are required on standard assessments.
Modern Test Prep for a New Age of Online Assessments
Online testing doesn’t need to be a hurdle. Using Keyboarding Without Tears, students reinforce skills that are essential to online testing environments and learn proper keyboarding technique. By reinforcing essential testing skills, students will learn, adopt, and practice proper keyboarding techniques that are key to online assessment success.
