Typing style AVOID! Avoid banging on the keys or using more force than the keys require. TIPS ● Keep it light If your typing is on the heavy side, teach yourself to lighten up. Press the keys more gently. ● "Hunt-and-peck" typing Non-touch-typing causes the neck to bend forward. Learn how to touch-type so you do not need to look down at the keyboard as often. Observe your typing style and notice how you use your fingers and hands. Avoid keeping any unnecessary tension in your thumbs and fingers. Observe whether you have a heavy touch or a light touch while typing. Use the minimum amount of force needed to depress the keys. RIGHT Relax all of your fingers while typing and pointing; notice and release excess tension. This sounds simple, but it may take repeated effort and attention to turn this into a good habit. WRONG! Do not hold unnecessary tension in any of your fingers - including those not touching keys or the pointing device, as well as those actively typing or pointing. 28 Chapter 4 Working in comfort
