What is being called a revolutionary way of teaching kids to “touch type” has now been introduced to the first school in Jamaica, Grange Hill High School. The school was presented with 20 color coded keyboards and lesson plans on how to implement the program. This will allow children in Jamaica to learn faster than ever before. The program founded by Tina Perry has been implemented into New York City school systems and now for the first time Jamaica. The program forces students to learn how to type with out looking at the keyboard. 12 schools have been chosen to start out with. Once these schools are successful in implementing the program N.E.E.T intends to open the program to all schools in Jamaica that qualify.
