The Keyboard Board

1. The Keyboard Board A skill development activity focused on increasing keyboarding speed and accuracy through individualization (determining a base rate), repetition (practicing words and drills over and over), and increased speed expectations. Timed writing, alphabetic, numeric, and high frequency word (hfw) {most frequently used word (mfuw)} drills are used to assure student success.
