Abstract

In the touch-typing education which learners master touch-typing as literacy, the subjective data (self-evaluation) of learners is an important mastery index in the touch-typing education whose purpose is the learning of keyboard literacy in addition to the objective data (objective evaluation) such as typing time and mistake rate. Thereupon, in addition to typing time and mistake rate, selfevaluation (consciousness of habituation and feeling of satisfaction) were measured in the touch-typing education for undergraduates. The results suggested the following : (1) The relation between sum total mean self-evaluation scores and frequency of records matched well to log-linear model, and it was suggested to be able to predict the mean selfevaluation scores, (2) We suggested the method to extract the changing patterns of self-evaluation scores, and extracted 14 kinds of changing patterns from the time series data of self-evaluation sores, and (3) As a result of the pass analysis for self-evaluation scores, typing time and mistake rate, it was suggested that, at the beginning of touch-typing practice, learners tend to put stress on typing time, but at the end of touch-typing practice, they tend to put stress on mistake rate.
