The only thing that I've seen almost universally get kids to try to learn to touch type with enthusiasm (perhaps too much) are games.
Just like how using Scratch is like (well is) playing a game.
Coming at children's learning from an adult perspective often isn't that useful. They just don't think like us a lot of the time.
- mwcampbell 5y agoI wasn't taught through a game. But in my case, learning to touch-type was a relief from practicing my handwriting, which was tedious for me. And I got to listen to the computer speak what I typed, which I thought was cool, even if the primitive speech synthesizer couldn't pronounce "Matthew" (my name) correctly. Edit: So yeah, my anecdote is unique and probably worth nothing in this discussion.
