TOUCH TYPING TECHNIQUE
Touch typing improves typing speed and accuracy. A touch typist never looks at the keyboard. The fingers hit
the right keys by the virtue of habit. The typist is entirely focused on reading the words and phrases as the
fingers type the text re exively. The acumen of touch typing is developed by adopting a methodical way of
learning, which is as follows:
Stage I
In this stage, the learner begins typing by using just the home row of the keyboard (the row beginning with
the Caps Lock key). This is followed by learning to type using the keys on the lower and upper rows, the
numbers row, the upper-case letters and the special symbols. ooking at the keyboard while typing must be
avoided.
Stage II
In this stage, the learner memorizes the frequently used letters and types the words containing these letters.
Stage III
The learner types text using the keys of the entire keyboard.
