We use Ellsworth for our 6-8 students. Just added it for 4-5. Don't
use any timing software at the high school as our students get
keyboarding classes from 5th to 8th grade and most are somewhat
proficient by the time they get to high school.
We have used others over the years. Ellsworth is very inexpensive
compared to others.

Subject: [tech-geeks] Typing software for HS classes
Our HS uses Micro Error Checker 2002 from http://www.sewarner.com/. It is
really just a typing software that allows the students to type in word, and
submit for automatic grading. Anyone using something else? Preferably web
based?
Our grade and middle schools use TypingMaster Intra, but my HS teacher says it
won't work for her? FYI, we in the tech office love TypingMaster as it just
works...always. The MEC program requires us to have shares out there that the
students in her class mess with from time time cause us all headaches.
