Stewart PREFACE "Introduction To Typewriting - Caribbean Style" has been written to fill a pressing need for the college, secondary, and post-secondary student in the Caribbean, particularly in the U. S. Virgin Islands. Textbooks abound in typewriting, written by experts in the U. S. These textbooks have been and are presently being used in the Caribbean. However, as the majority of typists who begin their clerical and secretarial training in these islands enter the job market in these islands, and remain in the islands, the need for a textbook geared to the island scene is self-evident. GOALS & OBJECTIVES "Introduction to Typewriting - Caribbean Style" is designed with the following objectives: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) To provide a basic 50-lesson course for use in a 16-week college semester. To provide a basic 50-lesson course (half year) to be used by the secondary and post-secondary student. To provide an introduction to 'touch' typewriting; that-is, to develop the ability to typewrite accurately and rapidly by touch. To provide an introduction to the beginning student (after the keyboard mastery) to Business and Personal Correspondence, Business Tables, Manuscript typing, Theme Outlines and speed development. To provide the student with local island copy using local business and government letterheads. To provide a pattern to guide the student through a speed cycle of one-minute, two-minute, three-minute and five-minute speed writings. To provide the student with a saleable vocational skill which may enhance a ‘first job' entry into the island's government and business community. To provide the student with a relevant base upon which to build and — progress to the Intermediate and Advanced levels of typewriting. To provide the student with the techniques involved in operating a typewriter. To provide motivation throughout the first semester on straight-copy speed and accuracy.

Computing your speed is very easy. If you type the first two lines, your speed is 16 words a minute. This figure is a cumulative count. If you typed one line and up to "I" in the second line, you would add the first line: 8, and 6 on the second line, for a total of 14 words. It is that simple to compute your speed for a minute. LESSON 4 5 PART I — THE ALPHABET KEYS LESSON 4 4-E. -— PROOFREADING LESSON 4 PROOFREADING CIRCLING ERRORS It is your responsibility as a typist to proofread carefully all material typed.

A rule-of-thumb in division is that the typist never divides a single-syllable word. There are many more rules which the typists will learn; such as, words must not be divided for a single letter. The typist does not divide short words of five or fewer letters. nm nan sOansides és ssabes Os scat cas Oe salen 1 10 * Type capital P and small 1. 10 20 30 40 10 20 30 40 50 66 16 PART | — THE ALPHABET KEYS LINE: 50 FIRST: Read 11-A,. completely and set paragraph.

The secret is in following the routine pattern below: First, you will clear the machine. How is it done? It is done by pushing the tab key just once with your little finger of the left hand and stop. Second, you will push the clear or minus key, with the little finger of the left hand, and stop. Third, you will go back to the tab key at top left of the machine, and tap it once again. These two keys will be tapped until you have cleared all the stops in the line. Fourth, you will tap the return key after the bell rings at the end of the line. At this point, you are at the left-hand margin. Space five times and push the set or plus key once. That sets five spaces for the paragraph. In the lessons ahead, you will become experts in setting your machine correctly for a paragraph. Practice this technique now for you will type many short paragraphs in this lesson or future lessons.

The next tab you need when you type letters is for the center of the page. How is this done? Space in and stop at fifty on the line scale. Push the plus or set key once. The center setting will be used when you type many closing lines for a business or a personal letter. ie) 30 10 20 30 40 17 PART 1 = THE ALPHABET KEYS LINE: 50 EACH LINE TWICE Single Space Set Tabs: -Paragraph -Center (50) Wr SOO One Space After: Dr., Prof., Mrs., and Mr. Two Spaces After: Colon and Period NOTE: After the complimentary close, space down 4 spaces and type _ your name.

You can control the pace of your typing by making an extra effort always to tap the keys quickly. If you can keep your wrists at an angle but in line with the home row of keys, your typing touch is certain to improve. Remember never to allow your palms to touch the machine.

The three suggested steps in the pro- cess of beginning a theme include an introduction, development, and conclusion of a given subject. A theme which does not contain these three important categories will be returned to the student without hesitation to be rewritten. Heed this advice well. To meet the growing need for higher education in the Virgin Islands, the college was established in 1962. This afforded students an opportunity to achieve occupational and/or professional training. One of the occupational programs offered is a two-year program in Executive Secretarial Adminis- tration. It is designed to round out knowledge in business subjects, general education and secretar- jal skills. The office worker needs to learn more than the major subjects of typing and shorthand. wma he «sv Os wowden s Ms can Dee « Gevwedire « Bean. .

GOAL: No more than 4 errors! LESSON 37 LESSON 37 (CONTINUED) 37-D. - SHORT PARAGRAPHS (5-minute timed writing) I, the beginning typist, have now completed a correspondence unit in typewriting. It is another milestone in my typing career. I have learned the basic parts of a business letter, and have learned that these basic parts are applied to any personal letters which I may wish to type. There is little difference between business correspondence and the personal business letters which are typed. For an application letter, for instance, the typist would fill in her return address and the date on line 13. I find that I am able to type short letters, both business and personal, and am training myself to keep typing at an even pace rather than looking back and forth as I type. I am trying to type the letters with few errors so that they are mailable. I am pleased with myself. My next goal is to find the time to practice and improve my skills in building accuracy and speed. I am learning that a typist must have the proper balance between a high speed and accuracy. I will try for that balance. ee wee odie wenbbeeDs » wo Bgope oh ue oxBeee Bly wed 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 170 180 190 200 62 INTRODUCTION TO TYPEWRITING PART VI — TABLES LESSONS 38 — 42 pp. 63 — 73 TWO-COLUMN TABLES THREE-COLUMN TABLES FOUR-COLUMN TABLES COLUMN HEADINGS FIVE-MINUTE WRITINGS REVIEW (LESSONS 41 & 42) TABLES * CENTERING * CORRESPONDENCE ** * All TABLES and CENTERING exercises are to be typed on 8%"« 11“typwriting paper either on a half sheet or a full sheet. ** LETTERHEADS are provided in a separate WORKBOOK PAD Each letter is identified with lesson number, letter number, and page number at the bottom of the page.

SIDEHEADINGS are 180 usually all caps and preceded by 2 blank Tines. A 190 Balance Line BALANCE LINE completes the short manuscript.

As a typist and a secretary, you know the size of this standard business page. Also, use good quality bond paper. Avoid using onionskin paper or tissue-weight paper. Avoid mailing carbons of a story to newspapers or radio stations. Carbons may smear when handled by the editor of a newspaper or a radio or TV announcer. Keep copies of all of the releases you mail out. List the club name, the address, a telephone number, and the person releasing the news story. Indicate when the story is to be released.

The increased pace means that the executive finds that much of the detail work must be delegated to other staff members. As a matter of fact, he depends on his secretary to take care of details he previous- ly handled. The secretary who develops the skills which make her competent is the secretary who will never want for a secretarial job. Do you qualify? Has your pace increased in your business day? If you are to assist your boss by absorbing detail work for him, your attitude is vital. Keep up the pace your boss sets by planning and organizing all your work to anticipate and meet weekly deadlines. Discipline yourself to analyze all the typing work you will produce during the working day. Planning each project is important. Here are the questions you ask. How long will it take me to type the ten letters the boss dictated? Can I i them up the first time and place them in the.mail? Can I type them carefully without spelling or grammar errors? ee ee ee ES eee ee ee: ee: ee | (qu) 10 20 30 50 60 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 170 180 190 200 82 PART VII MANUSCRIPT 8 BIBLIOGRAPHY ( 3) BIBLIOGRAPHY FULL PAGE A.
