Prerequisites: None

Hardware Requirements

A learner should have access to a PC with a stable internet connection to access the material online.

Software Requirements

In support of the instructional content provided within the 'AI-Powered Productivity' book, an interactive touch-typing testing tool has been developed. This tool provides users with an intuitive experience that makes learning fun and easy. The tool allows users to progress from fundamental to sophisticated touch-typing methods. Pre-designed practice and assessment activities may be developed, allowing for complete customisation of the required difficulty level, document layout, and key combinations. The tool offers metrics for accuracy and speed and real-time feedback on touch typing performance, obtained, highlighting mistakes made. Users can immediately identify areas for improvement, enabling them to monitor their growth and establish personal objectives. The tool is available online, making it ideal to practice at home, work, or school, depending on what is most convenient.

The tool provides for the following benefits:

Continuous Monitoring

Continuous monitoring is available during the learning process. Users can evaluate their progress regularly and consider constructive feedback to improve their touch typing and keyboarding skills.

Customised Exercises

The AI-powered touch typing and keyboard navigation algorithm automatically generates improvement statistics, analyse users' typing patterns, and detects which characters or fingers need more practice. Where difficulties may arise, customised touch-typing and keyboard navigation assignments fulfill the learning objectives. The practical exercises can be modified and tailored to concentrate on problematic patterns.

Self-Assessment

Evaluating one's improvement in touch typing and keyboard navigation skills is essential. Go over your reflection activities to find your areas of strength and weakness.
