SECTION 4 MASTERING THE PUNCTUATION, SYMBOL AND FUNCTION KEYS

U800002, Rev. 1.2, October, 2002

Activity 5 (Review)

You have now covered all four DataHand Mastery Learning Guides. Look at your ternplates

for the NAS, Normal, and Mouse Modes; it’s amazing to see how much can be done without

raising your hand off the DataHand keyboarding units. There's a few keys in the mouse mode

that were not covered such as L/R Mod (stands for Left/Right Modification), Arw Ks ON

(Arrow Keys On), PRINT, PAUSE, FND, PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN. Most of these keys

are self-explanatory with perhaps one or two exceptions to include L/R Mod and PAUSE.

System User Manual for an explanation of the functions associated

with these keys.

Symbols, punctuation, and function keys are a little more difficult to master because there so

many and the infrequency of use of many of them. To get the most out of the Punctuation,

Symbol, and Function Keys presented in this guide, review those keys that are used in your

applications. You can use material from your job to practice or make up exercises that relate to

the work you do. For example, you may find that you do a lot of editing in your job and often

times words, phrases, and paragraphs may be deleted. Create a document or open an existing

document and practice selecting and deleting material. As long as you don’t re-save the

document you are practicing on, the original is still there.

Practicing only the punctuation, symbol, and function keys used in your work will help you

reach and exceed your flat keyboarding skills quicker. Activating many of these same keys on

the flat keyboard requires that the hands be lifted off the keyboard, which amounts to time-

wasted motions.

CONGRATULATIONS on completing this program! Stick with your DataHands - you will

reap the benefits.
