Typing Club is a popular website offering free online touch typing lessons for students of all ages. Recently, through an email from one the Typing Club founders, I learned that Typing Club is available as a Google Chrome Web App. The Web App functions the same way as the website. As you type you are given instant real-time feedback about your accuracy and speed. Unlike other typing lessons that make you wait until an activity is completed to determine your accuracy or speed, Typing Club recalculates that information with each keystroke.
Applications for Education
Typing Club provides a free portal service for teachers to use to track their students’ progress. In addition to use of the standard lessons, the portal service allows teachers to create customized lessons for their students.
