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. |

The student
can move down the passage by using the scroll arrows on the
far right. |

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. |
