Beginning Keyboarding
Why Good Posture?
• Increase keyboard accuracy
• Decrease eye and body fatigue
• Reduce chance of physical injury
• Increase keying endurance
• Build keyboard confidence
• Achieve correct finger placement
Step 1: Balance
When you sit at the
computer, your body
weight should be evenly
distributed so that you do
not cause any fatigue in
your neck, back, or arms.
Starting a keyboarding
program is similar to
starting a new exercise
program. You are going to
be using muscles that
have not been used before
and you need to start
slowly and build your
muscle tone and
endurance.
Step 2: Feet
To achieve this balance,
your feet must be flat on
the floor.
