Question – How could we link j2review to your progress in typing?  (It needs a file in “my files” to be able to grade).

 

 

 

• j2launch – Find the typing folder then Typing speed test
• When you have finished the test,
  • Printscreen (Look for PrtScr on you keyboards)
    • Ctrl-silver blob (F10#) on the PC keyboards
    • Fn-PrntScrn on some laptops
    • Just press PrntScr on most laptops
  • Paste (Ctrl-V)  this into a new j2e5 page called Typing
  • If you can’t Printscreen, type your speed into a j2e page called Typing – put today’s date next to it.
