today I'll be showing you how to use co-writer within word and Outlook writer is a word prediction too old from Don Johnston we currently at Zionsville Community Schools have free access for students to the patents aiming for achievement Grant bring the 2020-2021 school year to use co-writer you would need to be on your word online so it's your student or child doesn't know how to get there they could go through the Central Community Schools portal I already have opened a Word document within my online word this icon appear is my co-writer extension icon if you do not have this on your students or child's device reach out to a teacher or administrator and they can provide instructions on how to get this for free using their sumail account I am going to toggle mine on and my word prediction box will appear I can move this if I don't like the location it will stick with me when I open it up at another time so these pictures stay with it how many show you how to change a couple of the features real quick in the options I'm guessing that too many for this students change it to 4 and I really like the open to flex expensive is a little bit bigger would be helpful and the background white on white and word makes it hard to read what I'm going to change the color of the background as well two things I want to point out of this will read the sentence back to the student when they're typing and then also with the flexible styling is toggled on for those kinetic sellers this is helpful option go back into my word document and you can see the changes that happened I want to type this word there I can hover over the word and I can left click the word that I want another way to do it if I click in the number one so the keyboard one will get me the word worse now I want to take the number 24 and I don't have the option to use the number keys on my keyboard until I click now I can either hover and click with my mouth or use my number keys on my keyboard I need to get back to the letter so I pick like the ABC again and I want flowers there were twenty-four flowers when I click that . read the sentence back to me so this is the type feature in co-writer another feature that I wanted to point out is the speech-to-text let's say that I was trying to write the word enough underweight that I spelled it did not come up so we teach the kids to delete and then use the speech to text enough the word appears and now they have the correct spelling obviously you can use it for a lynx ear sentences and speech to text as well but this is one way we teach them to use it when a writer the last picture is this little look up manage topic click on it that we have a report going to be on the solar system so the solar system I'm going to toggle that one on then click on my type going back to that feature enough but you can see his appearing probably sooner than it would normally be because we've created a topic free on solar system is pulling words from that topic and put him into the word prediction box this is how you can use the type to speech to text in the topic dictionary feature within co-writer in word now when they're done with that assignment they would want to go into the options and make sure that they talk so that it will just pull General words instead of specific ones based off of atopic chosen quickly I wanted to show you that it also will work with an emailing but you can see my Outlook and my word prediction box from co-writer is in here as well and I can do the same thing hover and click just like I was in word I hope that you find co-writer to be a helpful tool with your stew Thor children
