You will learn how to locate accurately and quickly the keys on the keyboard to type words, sentences, paragraphs, business letters, charts, and research reports. Once you have learned keyboarding, researching on the Internet, sending e-mails to family and friends, and posting messages on the My Seton message boards will be an easier process.

The textbook is Keyboarding Skills by Diana Hanbury King, who is the author of the Writing Skills series of books. The method of instruction in the book involves three of your senses: seeing, hearing, and touching. With your fingers in position on the keyboard, you will look at the letter in the book to be typed (seeing); say the name of the letter (hearing), and press the key (touching).
