Fun Activity for Typing

Aktiviti: Teknik Berlumba

Berlumba merupakan satu teknik menarik yang dapat membantu murid-murid membuat latihan menaip. Berikan murid-murid text yang sama dan berikan mereka 30 saat (atau mengikut masa yang tertentu). Gunakan pencatat masa untuk lebih 'exciting'. Bila mereka selesai, beri mereka peluang untuk membezakan hasil taipan sesama mereka. Kira banyak perkataan yang merka taip dalam masa yang telah diberikan. Pastikan kesilapan perkataan dalam penaipan tidak dikira dan untuk mengurangkan kesilapan tersebut, cabar murid-murid untuk tidak membuat kesilapan penaipan perkataan.





Atau....Cikgu boleh berikan aktiviti berlumba ini untuk latihan Alphabetical Order secara perseorangan. Catat masa berapa saat mereka boleh menaip A hingga Z tanpa kesilapan.





Peralatan yang diperlukan: pencatat masa, text, keyboard, monitor, mouse dan hard drive.
