Typing Tutor for Mac/Macintosh and Win/Windows

A professional level typing tutor for both Windows (Win XP, Win 98 etc.) and Macintosh (MacOS 9 and MacOS X). MetaInnovation's eText typeSmart typing tutor is ideal for self-paced learning by individuals, in classrooms and for professional development. Classroom use of the typing tutor is supported by a web-based student management system making teacher's life a breeze.

An advanced learning method for typing

The eText typeSmart typing tutor uses a training technique called the "direct reach method" that takes the user directly to the efficient typing method actually used by experienced typists. There is no time wasted un-learning the beginners technique.

Classroom typing teacher support

Since the eText typeSmart typing tutor is designed for professional training environments, it has built in support for the submission of student perfomance statistics to a central database. This makes student progress monitoring by teachers a breeze. The database supports multiple organisations, multiple classes and teachers can be assigned to classes on a very flexible basis. The management system for the database is entirely web-based.

Custom educational software development

Faraday R&D is a key member of the typeSmart Team, particularly in the areas of C++/C, MacOS X, PHP/MySQL, Javascript and hybrid CD production. Faraday R&D cannot take the credit for the original software design and development. Its role was to update the code for the new version and in particular to convert the program so that it was compatible with MacOS X. The program is written in c and c++ using the Metrowerks Codewarrior development environment.

Custom educational web development

Faraday R&D also converted the original ETPM FileMaker Pro-based student management system so that is now web-based and is implemented using MySQL/PHP.

Faraday R&D also had a hand in the Javascript/PHP coding for the eText typeSmart web site.

If you are interested in the development of web-based or cross-platform training software or web-based student management systems, please contact Faraday R&D to discuss your requirements.
