Idea No 1: Improve your Typing speed......

Introduction: Improve your Typing Speed.

Nowadays, Most of the people on earth know what is a Computer. I still remember when i still a kid... it is really hard to use the type writer to type a letter.. Especially Pure mechanical Type writer. So heavy and so hard to key in Each letter..... then.. to make it worst.. when u start to make a mistake u have to manually return back or scroll back your type writer head... .. but now.... this can be considered as a history... There are so many normal Computer keyboard, Light Keyboard, Laser Keyboard etc....

As an engineer for example, most of the time is spend in front of the PC (if IT, System, Design related job) but still for those who doesn't really has to tie it self with the computer need to use it when it come to do a report. Report has to be written by using a computer...

Bottom line is 'TYPE the Report by USING the COMPUTER = USE KEYBOARD'. How many Engineer still use 2 finger to type and how many engineer only able to finish 10 words in 1 minute... Too bad huh.

So 'IMPROVE your Typing SPEED' =

So annoying that for an engineer the main bottleneck is to transfer idea into a word in the report.. but with the low typing speed it can be considered as 'ADDITIONAL BOTTLE NECK'

So 'IMPROVE your Typing SPEED' =

Action: Suggestion for typing speed... ~ 40-45 wpm.

1. Find a typing software or Typing Website.
2. Spend at least 1 hour a day to practice typing.
3. Chatting or Commenting on the website - With fast speed as further practice.
4. Start to maintain speed and accuracy.
5. Aim the goal to start typing without seeing the Keyboard and manage the target speed.

Pro:

1. Able to complete report or research faster than before - Save time.
2. Able to type on the keyboard while listening to someone or even speak to someone.

Cons:

1. Bad Handwriting - Trust me start to write using pen after don't using it for 1 week haha :-)

Introduction ...... "Ideas For Lecturer"

Let's begin with an introduction ... I'm just a simple person who is actually would like to make some contribution to improve the education system especially in higher education level. I would like to be specific in Engineering Related Lecturer and others as a general matter.


More or less, main intention is to have this blog to keep track what ever idea or thought that come across in my mind which i feel will be beneficial in education or especially for the student. This will include other ideas that I've learn from other people or base on any discussion foreseen related to this topics.


Draft or outline for each posting will be made as simple as possible by hoping that the idea can be easily adopted, used or expand. To make it simple, each of the posting will consist of explanation on the main idea, Pro and Cons, Way of implementation and example if available.

Hopefully this small contribution will help to improve myself in improving the way we learn and share and hope that at least some of the idea can be used by others else well.....................
