Using the Split Screen

Typei n Responses to Writing Prompts


Using the Split Screen in Texas and US Writing titles
     
  1. So that students can always see the Revising and Editing passage and the question at the same time, the screen is split, with the passage on the top and the question on the bottom.
     
  2. The student can move down the passage by using the scroll arrows on the far right.
     
  3. The "split" can be moved up or down to reveal more of the passage or more of the question. Move the cursor over the handle at the far left of the blue split bar to see a hand. Click the mouse, hold, and drag the hand up or down to move the split.

Type in Responses to Writing Prompts
     
  1. To type in responses to a writing prompt, a student clicks on the Write your essay button. A window will appear in which they can type their essay, then click on Submit.
     
  2. The Free-Response Answers window is automatically displayed at the end of any session during which the student has typed in a response to a writing prompt, or can be brought up at any time by selecting Print Free-Response Answers from the File menu.
     
  3. The Date Range pull-down menu lets you choose between responses given in the current session only, in the current Assignment only, or in all Assignments.
     
  4. Click on Print to print out this window for grading. You can also log into the program using the teacher password to add comments and/or grades to the responses and to delete old responses if desired. You may then print the window for the student to see any comments.

Note:
If you use Manage IT!
®, you will grade these responses using Manage IT!®’s “Free Response” grading feature. (schools only)
