ABSTRACT:
Educational devices using process-oriented methods are disclosed to prepare pre-school/school children, and teenagers for keyboarding. The devices include dual sets of hand/digit/phalange representations with indicia mounted thereon to provide pictorial and/or alphanumeric representations of a keyboard of arbitrary form and content. Such representations with indicia are adaptive to the growth and development, and preferences of the learner whether in the form of wearable devices embodied as gloves/digit-portions/rings, or non-wearable devices embodied as software-generated screen-displayed images, or as hardware implementations spanning planar and three-dimensional structures. The methods include a synergistic use of said representation with indicia through a curricular process where the student is given the opportunity to acquire psycho-motor skills needed for keyboarding while simultaneously learning the alphabet and the numbers, reading/writing and arithmetic, and self-expression through story-telling in various languages. Visual-motor memorization of the indicia on the wearable representations is enabled by the novel "Finger-Thumb Focused Touch" approach which self-empowers any individual, literate/illiterate, to learn reading, writing, or typing, away from the keyboard while walking, dancing, lying, or sitting, adaptive to one's age/condition/culture. This method of learning is further reinforced through game activities with the indicia of non-wearable hand/digit/phalange representations, and associative aids. The development of sensory-motor/mental associations between hands, digits, indicia, and characters, is further reinforced through the use of aids connected to keys mounted at the indicia on the representations.
