Welcome to Taito Learning: A New Chapter for Our Growing Community

Taito Learning

At Taito Learning, we believe in empowering educators and students to thrive in today’s digital world. As education technology evolves, we’ve grown beyond our initial focus of teaching keyboarding to meet your expanding classroom needs. 

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our new parent brand Taito Learning, which brings together our beloved TypeTastic keyboarding program and our expanding suite of digital education solutions!

While our name has changed, our dedication to serving you remains stronger than ever.  This change will not impact the name of tools currently used by students, such as TypeTastic. You can still use TypeTastic the way you’ve been using it until this day.

Why the Change?

This exciting change is more than just a new umbrella brand—it’s a reflection of who we’ve become and where we’re headed. Over the years, our journey started with a focus on keyboarding, but with the introduction of our Digital Citizenship curriculum, we realized it was time to create a broader identity to house our growing family of educational products.

Today, we’re proud to offer a comprehensive curriculum, TypeTastic with Digital Citizenship,  which creates a complete digital education journey through three essential pillars:

  • Digital Citizenship: Teaching students how to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly, from online safety to digital etiquette.
  • Digital Literacy: Building foundational tech skills, like keyboarding, for the modern learner, ensuring students can thrive in the digital world. 
  • Computer Science: Introducing students to basic ideas of Computer Science to help them understand what’s happening behind the scenes of the digital world.

Together, these three pillars create a comprehensive framework that prepares students for success in our increasingly digital world. By bringing these powerful tools under one roof, Taito Learning has become a one-stop destination for educators seeking high-quality, standards-aligned resources to enrich their classrooms.

What Does This Mean for You?

Here’s what’s new and exciting:

  1. A Fresh Look, Same Passion
    You’ll start to see Taito Learning more on your emails, and materials, but rest assured, the same trusted team is here to support you.
  1. A Brand-New Website for Teachers, admins etc.
    Explore our sleek, user-friendly site featuring dedicated Teacher Pages packed with helpful resources, such as tools for aligning our programs with state standards. It’s designed to make your life easier, whether you’re diving into Digital Citizenship or exploring the familiar TypeTastic lessons.
  1. More to Come!
    With Taito Learning as our umbrella brand, we’re excited to continue expanding into new areas, bringing you even more innovative solutions to support digital education.

5 Tips for Adding Typing to Your Library Curriculum

By Toni Wimmer

With all the many subjects and skills today’s students need to learn and the limited resources schools have to teach them, it’s not uncommon for subjects that once had their own class to get folded into other courses. As an elementary librarian, I’ve seen this firsthand at my own schools, where we’ve recently incorporated typing instruction into the larger library curriculum. It’s a natural fit in many ways—typing is an integral part of the research and digital citizenship instruction we mostly focus on.
