00:00 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Introduction to KTouch.
00:04 In this tutorial, you will learn about KTouch and the KTouch interface.
00:10 You will learn how to type: accurately, quickly, and efficiently on a computer keyboard that has the English alphabet keys.
00:18 You will also learn to

00:24 What is KTouch?
00:27 KTouch is a typing tutor. It teaches you how to type using an online interactive keyboard.
00:33 You can learn typing at your own pace.
00:36 You can gradually increase your typing speed and along with it your accuracy.
00:43 KTouch also has lectures or typing samples, in various levels of difficulty, for you to practice with.
00:50 Here, we are using KTouch 1.7.1 on Ubuntu Linux 11.10.
00:59 You can install KTouch using the Ubuntu Software Centre.
01:03 For more information on 'Ubuntu Software Centre', please refer to the Ubuntu Linux Tutorials on this website.

04:11 The fifth line of the keyboard comprises the Ctrl, Alt and Function keys. It also contains the space bar.
04:20 Now let us see if there are differences between the KTouch keyboard, laptop keyboard and desktop keyboard.
04:29 Notice that the KTouch keyboard and the keyboards used in desktops and laptops are similar.
04:36 Now, let’s see the correct placement of our fingers on the keyboard.
04:41 Look at this slide.It displays the fingers and their names.
04:46 Fingers, from left to right, are named:

Little finger,

04:51 Ring finger, Middle finger,
04:54 Index finger and Thumb.
04:59 On your keyboard, place your left hand on the left side of the keyboard.
05:03 Ensure that the little finger is on alphabet ‘A’.
05:07 Ring finger is on the alphabet ‘S’,
05:10 Middle finger on alphabet ‘D’,
05:13 Index finger on alphabet ‘F’.
05:17 Now, place your right hand on the right side of the keyboard.
05:20 Ensure that the little finger is on the colon/semi-colon key.
05:25 Ring finger on the alphabet ‘L’,
05:28 Middle finger on the alphabet ‘K’,
05:30 Index finger on the alphabet ‘J’.
05:34 Use your right thumb to press the space bar.
05:37 The first time you open KTouch, the Teacher’s Line displays default text.
05:44 This text lists instructions on how to select the lecture and begin the typing lessons.
05:51 For the purposes of this tutorial, we shall skip typing the default text and select a lecture.
05:57 However, you can pause this tutorial and type the default text.
06:02 Now, let us select the lecture to begin the typing lessons.
06:07 From the main menu, select File, click Open Lecture.
06:12 The Select Training Lecture File – ‘KTouch’ dialog box appears.
06:17 Browse the flowing folder path

Root->usr->share->kde4->apps->Ktouch

06:31 and select english.ktouch.xml and click Open.
06:36 Notice that the Teacher’s Line now displays a different set of characters.
06:41 Now, let us start typing.
06:43 By default, the Level is set to 1 and the Speed is set to zero.
06:49 The New Characters in This Level displays the characters we will learn in this level.
06:55 Notice that the cursor is in the Student’s Line.
06:58 Let us type the character displayed in the teacher's line using the keyboard.
07:09 As we type, the characters are displayed in the 'Student’s Line'.
07:14 Look at the Speed field now.
07:16 As you type, the number increases or decreases based on the speed of your typing.
07:22 If you stop typing, the speed count decreases.
07:25 Now, let’s type the numbers seven & eight which are not displayed in the 'Teacher’s Line'.
07:31 The 'Student Line' has become red.
07:34 Why? That’s because we have mistyped or made an error in typing.
07:40 Let’s delete it and complete the typing.
07:56 When you reach the end of the line, press the Enter key to move to the second line.
08:02 Notice, that the 'Teacher’s Line' now displays the next set of characters to type.
08:07 The 'Student’s line' is cleared of the typed text.
08:11 Let’s check how accurately we have typed.
08:14 The Correctness field displays the percentage of correctness of your typing. For example, it may display 80 percent.
08:23 We have completed our first typing lesson!
08:26 It is a good practice to first learn to type accurately at lower speeds.
08:31 Once we learn to type accurately, without mistakes, we can increase the typing speed.
08:37 Let’s begin a new typing session.
08:40 Click Start New Session.
08:42 In the Start new training session – ‘KTouch’ dialog box, click Start from First Level.
08:50 What do you see?
08:52 A set of characters are displayed in the 'Teacher’s Line'.
08:55 The 'Student’s Line' is cleared of all characters and is blank.
09:00 Let’s start typing.
09:05 While practicing, you may want to pause and restart later.
09:09 How do you pause your session?
09:12 Click Pause Session.
09:14 Notice that the speed does not decrease.
09:17 Recall that it decreased when we stopped typing without pausing the earlier session.
09:23 To resume typing, type the next character displayed in the 'Teacher’s line'.
09:39 Once we complete typing, we can check the Correctness field. It displays the accuracy of typing.
09:46 This brings us to the end of this tutorial on KTouch.
09:50 In this tutorial, we learnt about the KTouch interface. We also learnt how to: place our fingers on the key board,
