Mark Kislingbury demonstrates how short writing allows him to write extremely accurately on difficult material, with his fingers moving slowly, and staying right on the speaker.
@TheJenn85345 I just transcribed the first ten seconds from "Without.." to "honored with this", and it's 41 words in exactly 10 seconds. So that's 246wpm of DENSE literary. The NCRA speed contest Literary is 220wpm, just for comparison. Hope that helps! - Mark
I would recommend that you work on writing with rhythm, with a consistent downward force, and minimal motion. You probably should try that at, say, 90wpm, something very easy. It's like a tennis player practicing proper stroke form in slow motion.
this is so awesome, thanks! this is a big help, how do you keep your fingers this controlled, my fingers are so spastic, i can hang on to control for about 2 minutes then my fingers look like a chicken with its head cut off...and im making tons of mistakes-
I KNOW I am using too much energy to write. My fingers fly everywhere. I learned the Phoenix Theory. Hardly anything was briefed or phrased. My school (Sage College) closed in 2016. I was in 180. I would like to get my CSR license. But, for now, I am captioning at some colleges. I am not getting all of the words down in the classes. I wish I had started out using your technique. ❤
Kathleen Muhlenkamp I do not know what your journey is at the moment, but Humphrey’s university offers online classes. I am currently a student there. Awesome school!
Very odd that a court reporting course doesn't offer speed building classes. Are you sure you're looking specifically at the judicial reporting program? Speed building classes are essentially the entire curriculum. I have been working in the field for some over five years now, but thank you for the well-wishes. :-) Mark - Per my first post on here, I did go back to theory and learned your theory. Give me a year, I may give you a run for your money in the speed competition! :-P
That is absolutely mind blowing. When I was going through court reporting school in Phoenix, AZ the theory I learned was Sten-Ed. As I'm sure you're aware, Sten-Ed greatly lacks phrases and brief forms. The school I attended has since switched to your theory and when summer semester rolls around, I'm going back to theory class after almost eight years to learn your theory. If I were to write that clip strictly Sten-Ed my fingers would be blur! What speed were you writing in this clip?
What is the writer you are using? I have been told by my instructor at school that my stroking is staccato. I am using a Elan Cybra student writer and am at 140 wpm. When I am on my laptop I find there is no wasted motion and I am real smooth. Mark, please advise.
The school I attended wasn't online, and to my knowledge they don't offer any online court reporting courses. The school I attended was Gateway Community College in Phoenix, AZ. If you live in the Phoenix metro area, I would highly recommend the stenography program at Gateway. Sorry if this wasn't the info you were looking for, but I'm not too familiar with any of the online stenography programs that are available.
I have always wondered about the keyboards in a court room, very interesting
😭 this is so intimidating

@mellymell0810 You can do it, if you work hard on writing short, and then practice at high speeds to make your fingers fast! - Mark
this was great.
I wish I can learn how to use this here in the Philippines.
Pinoy spotted.

so.... 90wpm on keyboard is bad....
it's not bad but it is slow. That's considered low speed in court reporting school.
@@justanothermind9449 On a steno keyboard, 90wpm is slow. These are not comparable to qwerty keyboards.
Makes me wish I was young again so I could give it a good run.
Hi Mark, can I ask for your permission to use your videos for my class? Thanks...
Thanks so much for sharing. I will use this in my practice.
Great videos shown on here!!!
Excellent
Where do I buy the Mark this writing product?
Thank you, Mark!
I am totally fuckin lost.
Wow !! Pamela in Detroit

A also dream of having one, but they cost ten thousandths us dollars if you buy them new.
this is so awesome, thanks! this is a big help, how do you keep your fingers this controlled, my fingers are so spastic, i can hang on to control for about 2 minutes then my fingers look like a chicken with its head cut off...and im making tons of mistakes-

This is legendary alphabet soup.
def.... all caps!!!
Wow! I must shorten my writing. smh
So what the heck are briefs??
Briefs are one-stroke shortcuts to write big words or phrases. Without briefs, each syllable of words need to be typed per stroke.
Do you have a book of briefs. I would be so interested to purchase one!
Is that P-P a period? And what was the W-B? Was that a misstroke or was that a comma?

it's a Lighspeed from Stenovations.
It's a comma.
What is your machine called?
stenograph

wtf!!! i'm out
Wow! I'm so impressed! I can't wait to type as fast as you, but it seems impossible :/
I'm currently in 150-170.
What keyboard is that and where do you get it?
stenograph
Lighspeed Classic by Stenovations
wut?
why is he always running infront of the camera? very unprofessional
He is a pro stenographer.. not a pro videographer. What do you do that is so very "pro"?
