Line Reader allows learners to overlay a movable, highlighted bar directly on top of any formative, focusing their attention on one line of text at a time.

This means students no longer need to lose their place or feel overwhelmed by a dense, busy page while working through an assignment. They can guide themselves through a reading passage, isolate a single question, or steady their focus on long-form or passage text immediately as they engage with the material.

When students open a formative, they will see the menu of Global Learning Tools on the right side of their screen, and a Focus Tools icon will appear within it.

Clicking on the Focus Tools will open another menu, where the Line Reader toggle button will be listed.

Students will toggle the Line Reader button ON to enalbe it. Then they will proceed to click on a specific line of text within text passages, questions or instruction fields for the gold highlight bar to appear and track the text lines.

Students can click, drag, use arrow keys (Up/Down step lines, Left/Right switch panes), or Escape to dismiss.
