A solid background in one's steno theory is essential to learning to write quickly. So without further ado, I'm going to bring you along on my journey to review my steno theory book, and hopefully we all will benefit.Schoolhouse Rock was slightly before my time, but I still remember hearing about it. Glancing at chapter 22 of my StenEd theory book reminded me of this video, so I might as well post this. Some of it's fast, but it's repetitive enough to be able to catch the chorus and the little words that so often get dropped when the dictation gets fast, like and, or, that, this, etc. To practice to this video, write only clear outlines, drop when you have to, and/or use a program to slow it down (click here to learn how).
