Skills Learned
Lessons are separated into three different levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and
Advanced. The Beginner level typing speed is 5 WPM (words per minute), the
Intermediate level is 11 WPM, and the Advanced level is 15 WPM. Each
Lesson consists of a tutorial, a drill, keystroke practice, an activity, and a
quiz to determine your progress. Lesson content starts with the basics and
builds on accumulated knowledge. Games played as part of a lesson will only
contain content learned up to that point. There are five rounds to play,
and three Finals. Each round contains three to four lessons, and has a
different opponent. Completing a round earns you a Certificate, which you can
print if you have a printer installed. To complete each round you must
pass a test. To pass, you must type at least 60% accuracy of the all of the test
correctly, and you must type at least 30% accuracy for each of the letters
learned in the current round. Once you complete the Beginner and
Intermediate lessons, you will be able to choose one of the three advanced
lessons (the Finals). The advanced lessons’ goals are based on WPM (word per
minute).

Games Included
Glove World 500
A fun, fast paced racing game that helps build your typing speed. The object of
the game is to stay ahead of Squidward by typing as quickly and as correctly as
you can. To play Glove World 500, type each character shown on Boaty's
dashboard as quickly as possible. Each time you make an error, seaweed
splats on your windshield. If too much seaweed splats on your windshield, the
game ends.
A Star is Born
This game builds your accuracy skills. The object of the game is to dress
Patrick up in elaborate costumes by typing the words found on his house.
Type three words to dress Patrick in one piece of clothing. Typing two or three
words of the same color will dress Patrick up in a piece of clothing matching
the outfit indicated by the colored rocks in the bottom left corner of the
screen. Patrick will get a random piece of clothing if you type three different
colored words. The piece chosen will be one of the three different styles that
you typed. Patrick needs five pieces of clothing to be fully
dressed. If you make an error, the game will not advance until you type
the correct letter. Each word begins with a different letter. For example,
if the word "Game" appears, no other on-screen word begins with the
letter "G." Once you type the first letter of a word, you need to
complete that word before starting another one. You may not backspace. The
timer is located in the bottom right of the screen. The time given depends on
the level and lesson you are currently on. Winning the game depends on
quick and accurate typing. Patrick appears on-screen after you finish dressing
him up. You lose the game if you type too slowly and your time runs out.
Doh Ray Me
SpongeBob enjoys the occasional undersea melody – in the key of sea, of
course. In this activity, you can choose a melody from SpongeBob’s jukebox,
and then 'play' that melody by typing letters that appear as bubbles on your
keyboard. If you type the keys correctly, you will hear a song from your
favorite Bikini Bottom musician: Squidward, Patrick Star, Sandy Cheeks or Mr.
Krabs.
Snail's Pace Race
It’s the Bikini Bottom Stakes snail race, and Gary is up against his
archrival, the paint-drying-quick Slime Biscuit. The race takes place on the
ocean floor in Bikini Bottom. It is designed to improve your speed and
accuracy. The faster and more correctly you type, the faster Gary goes. Stay
ahead of Slime Biscuit to win the game. If your time runs out and Slime Biscuit
reaches the end line before Gary, or you make too many mistakes, Slime Biscuit
wins.
Senseless Patrick
In a freak domestic accident involving a cotton swab, an inflatable easy chair,
and a violent sneeze, Patrick has lost all five of his seldom-used senses. In a
gallant attempt to save his unfortunate friend, SpongeBob has miniaturized
himself (using Mermaidman’s mesmeric belt), and has entered Patrick's head --
and he intends to knock some sense back into his friend! You can help
SpongeBob move through a maze inside Patrick’s head. Type any letter next to
SpongeBob to move through the maze. Avoid the nasty Antibodies, or dispel
them by stopping on a ‘thought tangle’. Once you complete the Thought
Tangle, all of the Antibodies are expelled from Patrick’s head. Watch out!
These pesky guys will come back and try to kick SpongeBob out, too. You
must collect all of Patrick’s five lost senses to restore them to some measure
of usefulness.
