Typewriters are now used to learn Keyboarding which is very relevant in the use of computer. Learning through the typewriter is rigorous but it really worth it. That's the course I lecture. I'm happy to see this.

Ok, but they ought to have gotten rid of this by now and replaced it with something more useful

The idea of a 14 year old hunching his frame over a typewriter sounds so very terrible

especially when you think of his equivalent in China...ewo...
Nothing good comes easy this thing you are so much in a hurry to dispose off was invented thru hard work. let the kids get this knowledge, it will come in handy. Don't compared Nigeria with China please.

Lol, yes teacher.

but the thing is, why does there have to be a basic course for just typing. all courses including typing should use a keyboard...

I am not in a hurry to dispose of it, i enjoyed it in those days but its time to move on

In the full moon, i dont go out to listen to folktales as my grandmother did, I stay inside and watch tv...those are my new modern folktales.. but i didnt trash the old ones..

We study history so that we can understand our origin. And if the young chap wants to learn about typewriters, let them introduce a new course called "History of Technology" where he will learn about typewriter, abacus, sundial, mangle, plough and all other obsolete technologies

Not to waste somebodys time in the name of business studies

Yes, now its time to study the keyboard and invent another thing...which was the touchscreen-activated keyboard by the way....

After that we should be using eye movements and facial expressions to type...but for nigeria we go dey siddon here dey press typewriter? at 1 hour to independence day?

in academics. A will bring a law, 200years later, B will come out with his own theory disproving A. 50 years later, C comes and say A and B are totally wrong. But why do we still study theory A and B?
you are even worst you want a separate subject for it. In basic 1,2 and 3 type writer is usually 3rd term. For 1 and 2 its the week 10 and 11, for basic 3 it week7,8,9, and 10. we don't dwell on it much for you to be advocating that we make it a subject. They learn about the keyboard in their computer studies and basic tech
