Selecting text in a lesson
Select lesson text to copy it with its source, add it to your Notebook, highlight it, correct it or ask the Assistant.
Select text in a lesson and a small panel appears with what you can do with it. A selection snaps to whole words, and the panel shows how many characters you picked.
What's on it
- Copy
- Copies the passage with a line saying where it came from: the course, the module number and the lesson number.
- Add Note
- Saves the passage under Highlights & Quotes in your Notebook, and opens the Notebook.
- Highlight
- Colours the passage, for you only. Highlights come back when you reopen the lesson and are listed in the Notebook.
- Correct
- Proposes new wording for the creator to approve or decline. See Correcting a lesson.
- Ask the Assistant
- Sends the passage to the ACADA Assistant, which explains it or says more about it.
Rules and limits
- Highlight and Correct work inside a lesson. On a module page the panel offers Copy, Add Note and Ask the Assistant.
- Outside the course's material, the panel offers Copy only.
- Clicking a highlight opens the Notebook.
- A highlight disappears if the creator rewrites that passage.
