able to answer it, you will be notified and you may go back to the Q

questions prepared before entering online tutoring so the tutors can
focus on the areas with which you need assistance.

Cutting and Pasting
-
NetTutor
allows for cutting and pasting from word processing.
-
To paste, select text from word processing
document and copy it.
-
In
NetTutor's
whiteboard, go to EDIT, and PASTE TEXT. A second window
will come up so you can paste.
-
There are no menu functions here, so press
CONTROL + V to paste text in window.
-
Text wrap is not an automatic function in
this program. When you have pasted your text to the white board, go to
the bottom right hand corner of the window where there are several
boxes. The middle of the three is a number, which should be set at 75.
To the left of this is the WORDWRAP box. Click on this to wordwrap
your pasted text. When you are finished, click OK. This will take
you back to the white board. Click once on the white board to insert
your text so that both you and the tutor can work with it.
