[Typing efficiency of dysmelic children in Bochum (author's transl)].
First of all, the article reports on experiences made with dysmelic children undergoing typing instruction as presented in professional literature. Then follows a discription and comments on the outcome of a study, encouraged by "Aktion Sorgenkind", in which a training programme was tailored to the individual movement potential of eleven dysmelic children, and resulted in their mastering the recommended movement patterns two years after the end of the course. The observed loss of typing efficiency was due to the lack of practice in higher education schools, as a result of which suggestions are made for the introduction of restructured special education procedures.
