Right Handed Keyboard Unit 1
Right Hand Exercise 1
Training Exercises for the Maltron Single Hand Keyboard
Unit 1 Exercise 1:
Remember to read each word across the lines.
Always concentrate through eyes on to the copy as you key.
Do not worry about keying errors, do not try to go back and delete mistakes - it is more important to key the same group a few more times and get it right that way than to go back and correct an error.
You will be asked to use the TAB key to move into or between text entry boxes. Please note that you will usually need to click with your mouse or trackball just above the first text box on a page, then the TAB key will place the cursor in the correct place.
Click into each box at the end of the first line and press Enter (Return) to start typing.
