When doing staccatos, think about curling your fingers towards(but not all the way to) the upper part of your palm as you strike the key. This creates a quick tap of the key, and a clear, sharp staccato. Just know that it's pretty easy to instinctively develop tension with this method, and avoiding that tension is very important.
