Setting up Word Lists

While Keyboard monitoring provides real-time tracking of what Students are typing, you can ensure Students are on track during the lesson by creating Target or Inappropriate Word lists. There may be certain words that you will expect Students to include during a written lesson. When a Student types a word on the list it will be identified with a visual indicator, green (Target) or red (Inappropriate).

Notes:

∙Word Lists can be sent to the Student Journal, allowing the Student to refer back to this after the lesson. Choose {Typing}{ Add Target Word List to Journal} from the Control window drop down menu.
