We wanted to have a computer literacy class to teach specific skills that could then be utilized across all subjects. For 15-20 minutes every day in computer literacy class the students worked on improving their typing skills. We used typingweb.com to teach students proper hand position and fingering technique. We felt this was important to improve student accuracy & speed when typing papers and working on other projects that required typing. In September average student rate was 24 wpm. By May, the average wpm increased to 49. Then for the rest of the daily class period, the students were introduced to various apps that they could choose from to complete work in other classes. Here is a list of the apps and/or websites that the students learned about during the school year. I will talk about each of these items and how they were used in each of the other classrooms in future posts and will provide student samples.
