when typing cursor jumps to another sentence

I just bought a new computer with Windows 8, and the last Microsoft Office Student. But when writing a paragraph and typing a sentence the cursor jumps to a previous paragraph. Because I am concerned with typing I did not realize that the words I am typing are being inserted in a different sentence, or paragraph. This is turning to annoys me.

I would appreciate the help you can give to solution this problem.

Is this a laptop? Try reducing the sensitivity of the touchpad or turn it off completely and use a mouse instead.

Note that some touchpads are so sensitive that rapid typing may be registered as mouse movements and/or clicking.
