Summary: Typing motivation for sports fans!
Review: As a computer literacy teacher I have tried several learn-to-type programs in the classroom. This program was successful in getting some of the sports minded people to practice their typing with no complaining! It maintained their interest even in the typing of long paragraphs which highlighted interesting stories about great names in the history of basketball. As a teacher however, I found the recording of their progress not as comprhensive and accessible as other programs.

Review: Great fun- and learning how to type at the same time. If you want to learn how to type, but not get bored at the same time, try using "slam dunk typing" we used it at computer class at school. When she said it was time to leave, nobody wanted to go because they were having such a a great time. I reccomend it for people ages6 and up, but anyone can really use it.

Summary: fun for me
Review: I am 13 and this is awesome!! Fun to learn from. It helps you to discover problem keys, prompts you to work on them and is very, very fun to play. It feels like a game rather than a lesson.

Summary: Why no WinXP upgrade???
Review: I have never seen a typing tutor program that kids go nuts for like Slam Dunk. It does a great job of actually feeling like a computer game, as opposed to many educational software items where the "game" aspect feels like an excuse to learn stuff. I've seen kids from third grade through seventh really love it. BUT...it does not work with WinXP!!!!! I don't know what Creative Wonders has not offered a new version, but I wish they would. Nevertheless, if you have a MAC or an older version of Windows, I heartily recommend this software.

Summary: My son loves it!
Review: My 12 year old son loves this game. He "plays" it more like a game than as homework. It is very well made, the instructions are clear and thorough and he has spent more time with than we asked him to! Much better than the boring typing class I took in high school, this will get him typing correctly in a few weeks time and in a very enjoyable format. If you have a basketball lover this is definitely the game for them! It starts out w/ the typical letter sequences like j-h or f-r but instead of just typing it forever, the game is set up in a few different formats.In "passing" you type the letters that show and that passes the ball between players. In the "game" scenario you type the letters to pass the ball and then every now and again a small screen pops up w/ a three letter word that you have to type in order to shoot or defend the ball! very fun.
