Reader Walkthrough
Above is a sample screen from the Eleven Learning reader. Let’s look at it element by element.
Navigation
|
The reader displays one section of text at a time. Use the scrollbar to move around within a section. |
|
To skip to the next section of the textbook, click the Next button (1). |
|
To jump to a different section, use the Table of Contents (2). Click on a chapter title to display its sections, then click on a section title to load that portion of the textbook. Finally, there’s no need to bookmark your page in the browser: next time you open the book, the reader will remember what section you were reading. |

Annotation

To make a Highlight, click on the highlighter icon (3), which is on the left in this picture. Then select the text you want to highlight. Selecting a portion of a table highlights the entire table. You can select multiple passages; the highlighter stays on until you click the icon again to turn it off. Tip: in some browsers, double-clicking will highlight a word. To Erase a Highlight, click the eraser icon, which is on the right in this picture. Then select the text whose highlight you want to remove. The eraser stays on until you click the icon again to turn it off. |
|
To Add a Note, click on the plus-sign icon to the right of a paragraph (4). This opens up a note in editing mode. (The picture to the right shows both the icon and an open note.) Enter your text, then click the save link at the bottom of the note. Alternately, clicking anywhere outside the note will also save it. To Edit a Note, click the edit link at the bottom of a note. You may also click in the text of a note. To Delete a Note, erase all its text, then save it. |
