Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing: User's Guide

Student user settings are changed within the Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing Deluxe program (i.e.
outside the Teacher’s Area). To change user settings for an individual student, sign into Mavis as
that student, then access the toolbar, click Settings.
Importing Student Lists
To expedite the process of populating classes, you may import student lists that are saved in a text
or ASCII format with the .txt extension. The text file should contain one student name per line,
with no more than 99 students per class. Student names may contain up to 25 characters. Default
user settings will be assigned to imported student lists. (The default values are: English language,
standard typing mode, 40 WPM goal, age 12–15, standard keyboard type, and student user status.)
Note that these settings can be changed within the Mavis program in Settings/User Settings.
Student Progress Report
The student progress report offers a convenient way to follow student progress through the
program. You can view progress for an individual class or for all students at once. You can print
the student progress report or export it to a tab-delimited text file for use with a spreadsheet
program.
