A Guide for the Improvement of Typewriting Instruction.
Liles, Parker; Liles, Zenobia T.
This program guide was prepared by two business education leaders for use in teaching typewriting on the secondary level. In addition to offering suggestions on teaching techniques and methods, this 4-semester outline presents the major organizational problems facing the typewriting teacher. Specific problems given attention include teaching the handicapped, allowing for individual differences, student evaluation, and the psychological principles of teaching typewriting. Other topics included in the 25 chapters cover: (1) keyboard presentation, (2) speed development, (3) problem solving in production typewriting, (4) importance of demonstrations, (5) educational and personal background of typewriting teachers, (6) room layout and equipment, (7) teaching aids, and (8) research in typewriting. Most of the chapters have a separate bibliography. (JS)
