At Challenger Elementary, Nancy Everts (district technology specialist) implemented an instructional keyboarding program, available to all students through the computer lab.
According to Everts' research, keyboarding is considered a technology literacy skill necessary in our global and digital world, but has disappeared in many schools.
For her award-winning project, titled "QWERTY", the Foundation funded the instructional software, which will be implemented at all grades levels.
