Microsoft Word / Changing the Display
What it is:
Word has some pre-sets that allow you to quickly change how the text looks on the screen. Thinking of your students: - Is there anyone who seems to have difficulty reading text from the screen?
- Have any been diagnosed with visual processing difficulties?
- Would printing materials larger, bolder, or in color assist them?
Students may benefit from changing the:- Font type: Serif or sans-serif
- Font Size
- Text color
- Background color
|
How does it work:
To change the display:
The type, size, and color of the font can be changed in the normal formatting menu, toolbar, or palette.
To provide a blue background, go to Preferences and select General. Select the option for Blue Background, White Text.
For other Background color options, go to "Background" in the Format menu, or select "Background" from the Toolbar choices. Try light yellow.
