This manual was first produced in 1992, and was revised for the second edition in 1997. The first edition is available in the ERIC microfilm archives at many university libraries. [ERIC access number: ED 355 407]. Either edition is an excellent guide to the technique fundamentals required for keyboarding success. Both also contain helpful information on developing an articulated school/district program. The 1997 edition added information on technique guidelines which prevent keyboarding-related repetitive stress injuries. It has an excellent reference list and includes a summary of research results. | |
