Office 365 give you access to Word tools anywhere you are on any device. The video below will walk you through using some of the core features found in Word Online. Below I have outlined some of the core features.

Collaborate

By using the Share button at the top right you can share the document with other users and they can collaborate in real time on the same document. This is a great feature for both students and staff. 

 


Open in Word

If you would prefer to work in the Word app on your computer click the "Open in Word" option along the top menu and it will open in Word. You can then save directly back to O365 without having to save it offline then upload back to O365. 

Immersive Reader

If you are not using Read and Write for Google Chrome, or want a quick method to have your text read back to you, click on the Immersive Reader button in the View Ribbon. Once you have enabled immersive Reader you can adjust the speed of the reader, the size of the font, the color of the font, as well as have the modify the following information about the text: Separate syllables, highlight nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
