Should the school day start later?

Should secondary schools start the day later than they currently do?

This is the opening. The next four levels build the rest of the essay on top of it.

Most secondary schools begin the day before nine, at an hour set long before anyone studied how teenagers actually sleep. The question is not whether students would prefer a later start. It is whether the early one is costing them something worth more than the convenience it buys.

Notes on this level

What this level is training

This level does not introduce a new key. It drills the right index, left pinky, right ring, left ring, left index, right thumb, left middle, right middle, right pinky fingers on keys you have already met, at a target of 38 words per minute and 94% accuracy.

Speed at this stage comes from removing hesitation rather than from moving faster. If your accuracy is above the target but your speed is not, the gap is almost always time spent deciding, not time spent pressing.

Most difficulty at this stage is technique rather than effort. These explain the technique.
