Pg 117Briefly introduce which topics are covered in this lesson so students are aware of the new skills they will learn. Remind students also that all the information is available in the book as a reference so they don’t need to commit anything to memory or take notes.
Pg 124Objective 5.2Use comments as another method to proof your document except you are relying on another set of eyes to catch anything you may have missed, or simple to provide feedback in regards to the content of the report.When there are comments from multiple people looking at the report, these comments appear in different colors for each person. You can still move from one comment to another or delete them as needed.If you used CCI’s Word courseware in the past, you will notice Comments is now here instead with references as it has become a core objective.If you introduced the Select Browse Object button previously, mention how this tool can be used to find comments entered in a document.

Pg 126Printing is one of the basic requirements for using word processors. Although there is always discussion about a paperless society, people like the ability to view a document in hard copy form, as well as make marks on that copy instead of electronically. One of the benefits of Backstage is that preview and printing are in one location now, giving you the opportunity to view several pages at the same time without having to change screens.

Pg 127-129Point out how Word provides you options similar to those on the Page Layout tab to make any last minute changes you need prior to printing the document. You may need to provide examples of the different ways you can print, or why you may want to do those, e.g., markup, odd pages only, etc.Remember that print options are tied into the type of printer you have and options installed. For instance, if the printer cannot do double-sided printing, the Print on Both Sides option will not be available for use. Alternatively, if the printer can print in color but you are printing drafts of the report, you may want to change the color option to black and white only.
