An interactive activity teaches how to type the symbols on the Spanish keyboard

Toni Magraner has shared a web activity for learning to type on the Spanish keyboard. It asks students to type symbols such as @, #, €, ñ, ç and accented vowels, as well as numbers and shortcuts such as copy, cut, paste and undo.

It offers a “Ponte a prueba” (Test yourself) mode, with a hint if students are unsure (for example, the key combination for the at sign), and a training mode with an on-screen virtual keyboard. At the end it shows a report with accuracy, number of keys, errors, average time and the symbols worth reviewing, and it comes with an infographic of Spanish keyboard symbols.
