Keyboarding (Micro Type Pro)

In lessons 5, 6, 7 and 8 , in which lesson 6 is a Review, you will place special emphasis on:
  • SHIFT/CAPS LOCK

  • DOUBLE LETTERS

  • SHIFTING

Strike Enter with a reach and returning motion using right little finger. (only after you have keyed the whole paragraph).

Reaches for figures for the rest of the week are:
  • 6 key-->reach up with right index finger.

  • 2 key-->reach up with your Left ring finger.

  • $ key-->use your left middle finger, strike $ using right shift key as well.

  • % key-->shift, then reach up to % with yourleft index fiinger.

  • - key-->reach up to - with your right little finger.

Keep fingers upright; do not let them plant over the keys. Think, say and key all phrases in the lesson.

There are two handouts dealing with figures , tables , rows , and columns .

Center-align headings and entries (main, secondary, and column). However, in the "Faculty Load Report" left-align column A.

Save to "3 1/2 Floppy (A:)drive" (your diskette). Save as "Report1" and "Report2" .

Always use only one word when saving a document. It is easier, and can be found more quickly when lost, if found at all.
