If you wish the word to be added to dictionary, click add. Tick dictionary to get more words to choose from. Task 4 Type tooday and right click on it choose correct spelling. Tick dictionary box and see dictionary collection of words. Text frames TextEase does not act like a normal word processor but can be made to do so if a text frame (F7) is added to a page. If the whole page is in a text frame then it will perform like a standard word processor. Graphics Click on. Clip art is opened. Drag your picture on to page. Click to select so that you can move, enlarge, rotate etc (as for text). Home icon takes you to C:\Program Files\Softease\Textease Resources\Curriculum Resources.

3 Labelling Diagrams It is very easy to choose a clipart graphic and then add labels. Click on screen at the point where you need to type a text label. Use the drawing tool line to point to the appropriate spot. You can make lines into arrows by selecting line and using Effects, Arrows tab. You can group objects by holding control while you select each one, (or click on Select all icon) then click on Task 6 Find a picture and add some labels. Group them to make it all one object. Word Banks You can easily make up your own word banks associated with a particular topic. Task 7 Click on Other, Create Word Bank.

Now click on TextEase page then Other, Select word bank, so as to use it when working on an assignment relating to that topic. Sound linking It is very easy to link sound with any object.

4 Animation To create an animation there has to be on object (text or graphic) and a path for it to follow and for them to be linked together. Task 9 Insert a graphic on a page. Use one of the drawing tools and draw the path to be followed. Select the graphic then select the path (double click left button on graphic then click the right button on the path so they are both selected). Click on the links button then on the animate tab on the links window. Check to Follow over box. The graphic should move over the path.

Talking Books: Task 10 Insert more pages by clicking on Edit, Pages, Insert pages. Type some text on the second page (eg. page2). Select, click on links, Bookmark. Type in a bookmark name one word eg two) and click bookmark name box. Click on link graphic on page 1 (eg.the shark picture). Find two in Jump to bookmark window. Now test your link by clicking on the shark. This idea can be used to create multiple pages of your book a young child can now have your book read out aloud to them and they are able to move to the next page at their own rate. Don t forget to add some multimedia effects. You can add page numbers and graphic to every page if wish. Click where you want the page number to appear, then click on Tools, Insert Page Numbers, and first option. Then select the 1, click Other, Header and Footer, All Pages. Repeat for a graphic which you want on every page. Copy/Paste You can select any text or object and then click on copy icon. Click where you want this to be pasted and click on paste icon. 4
5 Other features. Look at File, Examples Paint, Database, Spreadsheet and Presenter folders contain examples demonstrating ways to integrate features into the curriculum. Paint Note: Can open either Graphics toolbar or Paint toolbar but not both at the same time. Eg Database Eg Using the Database wizard, it is very easy to create a collection of fields to contain text information or a picture. (Students first need to plan what fields will be appropriate). The student then has to research the details of the relevant creatures (or whatever) and create a record for each. It is possible to then use the database to look up organisms, do a query on a particular feature or generate a table based on those records. (Note that the toolbar icons now relate to the use of the database). 5
6 Spreadsheet Simply click Spreadsheet, Create Spreadsheet, then click and drag to produce the size you want. Create the relevant columns headings and row labels. You can insert/delete columns and rows, add formulae and use auto sum and sort. It is very easy to draw a chart of selected region. It is also possible to a. select spreadsheet data, copy and paste into Excel. b. Select chart/graph and paste into another document. Presenter operates in much the same way as PowerPoint. When running presentation, you can use right click to find controls. Help menu brings up excellent manuals for each tool. Don t forget to use the Highlighting tools as a wonderful tool to assist finding the main points in a piece of writing. These training notes were written by Yvonne Lynch.
