Australia has issued a standard for typing speed tests. If you wish to review a summary of the Australian Standard™, click here.


Elementary School
This protocol is designed to measure the improvement in keyboarding speed and accuracy in a group of elementary schools subjects, when the TACTUS™ Keyboard is used in place of a standard keyboard. The study consists in imparting touch keyboarding instructions, in accordance with the standard school curriculum, to two groups of students, one of which uses the standard keyboard and the other the TACTUS keyboard. The total number of standard words typed by each subject, in a given period of time, is used as a measure of performance. The study should run until at least 12 hours of touch keyboarding tuition are cumulated.
