Learning to use a mouse correctly and efficiently is an important part of using a computer. There are many websites available to help users practice with a mouse to increase their speed and precision.
Mouse-practice.com
On Mouse-practice.com there are 112 different types of mini-games all designed to help users with their mouse control.
Some of the games we have used here at SDM are Apple Catch, Frost Bite, and Desert Dive. Each game has a different and unique objective designed to help in different areas of mouse usage.
Mouseaccuracy.com
Mouseaccuracy.com is a website designed to help users with their pointer accuracy. The objective is to click as many of the red dots that appear on the screen as possible. There are also multiple levels, so you can keep challenging yourself as you get more practice!
Try to get a better score each time, and then consider going up a level and trying again. Consistency is key when it comes to building muscle memory, so practicing over and over again will be greatly beneficial.
LearnFree.org
The website LearnFree.org offers an excellent tutorial with tons of information about mice and how they work.
LearnFree.org is a great resource for all sorts of tutorials, not just using the mouse. This site contains a ton of free information that covers different operating systems, applications, and other tech skills. If you’re not totally sure what you’d like to learn, you can use the ‘Explore’ tab on the top menu to view all the subjects they cover to help inspire you!
We also have a blog post on Resources for Learning How to Type.
