Re: online typing programs

Type To Learn 4 has a web version. I do not believe you have to install anything, it is completely accessible on the web and students can access it from home to do homework etc. and the accounts are set up by the Admin. We are looking into this at the moment - it's the Agents of Information package. We are also getting a "loyalty discount" pricing because we have TTL3 now. For a one-building package (which would cover our 240 students), it would be between $700-800. They have so many different packages that it can be confusing at times. This one covers K-12 (we are a K-8 school). I called and they sent me a demo which I installed on my laptop for teachers and students to try out. Positive feedback thus far - I haven't tried accessing the web version yet.

Subject: online typing programs

We are looking for an online typing program for grades 2 - 8 that can
track students progress and log it via a userID (not an email address). We
are working to set benchmarks per grade level and we would like students
to be able to work at home for extra practice and have their lessons and
assessments recorded so that the teacher can see it. Does anyone know of
such a program? All of the ones we have found require an email address.
We don't want parents to have to install a program at home. We looked at
Type 2 Learn but it requires a full installation.
