Subjects Not Taught in School Any Longer
Here is a simple example of why typing isn’t taught as a separate class anymore.
The basic “QWERTY” keyboard has been around since the advent of the typewriter. But although it still exists, it’s not the same in the computer age. Numbers and special characters are on separate tabs that can be selected directly rather from all being on the base keyboard. That is far different that a typewriter.
Kids are taught a different way to use the keyboard than we were because the technology is very different today...and they need the skills that apply in the modern world, not the previous world.
