Does typing help you memorize things like writing them does?

Yes, typing does help you memorize the things you're typing, unless you're copy-typing at high speed. In that case, you rarely recall what you've typed.

But keyboarding at moderate speed helps you memorize. When I had something I needed to learn I frequently just sat the book or papers on my desk and typed them; there are three good results from this: you speed up your keyboarding, you memorize the work, and you have an electronic copy you can use later.

When you type the two-finger way it takes so much of your energy and attention just to get the correct words down that you don't recall much of what you write. Just another of the many reasons to take the short time you need to learn to touch-type.

How should a keyboard be positioned when you're working?

How do i use my function keys on windows 10 Not the volume up volume down mute stuff but f1 f2 f3 f4 etc.?

You press the key, then quickly release it.The meaning of the keys varies, depending on the program you are using. F1 often means "help", but the meaning given to the other keys varies a lot, from one program to another.

Usually you will have a menu in a program; next to the individual menu options, there will be shortcut keys which you can use instead of the menu option. Some of those shortcut keys may include function keys.

What is object drawing?

It's often used as practice in order to learn about lighting, shape and/or detailing/texture in various items, or even just to touch up your skills to remove the rust. Hope I helped!
