Practice Test Area<br />

The Practice Test is a place where you can test your typing in a more traditional manner. When<br />

you select the Practice Test area, you first go to the <strong>Mavis</strong>–Topic screen (at left in the illustration<br />

below). The default topic is English, but you can select a list of topics using the pull-down menu.<br />

The content of the topics is identical to the personal computer version of <strong>Mavis</strong> <strong>Beacon</strong> Deluxe.<br />

After you select a topic, the Practice Test begins immediately.<br />

Select the Cancel button to return to the Main menu.<br />

The bulk of the Practice Test screen is dedicated to the content and typing. Your errors will be<br />

marked with a small “^” below the incorrect letter. The next letter to be typed is highlighted on<br />

the keyboard displayed on screen. Your current speed (calculated on the fly) is noted in the upper<br />

right corner of the screen.<br />
