This activity will help you get to know the E-edition tools. Can you find a tool that…
searches that day's paper quickly? (Hint: Look for one marked “Search” or “Quick Search.”)
- searches that day's newspaper in more detail? (Hint: It may have a magnifying glass like a detective might use.)
- searches the newspaper's archives? (Hint: Look for the word “archives.”)
- finds E-editions from the past 7 days?
- allows you to see thumbnails (small images) of the pages?
- shows an index of all of the stories?
- allows you to email an article? (Hint: Look for a picture of a mail envelope or the word email.)
- allows you to print an article? (Hint: Look for a picture of a printer or the word “Print.”)
- makes photos larger?
- makes the page larger or smaller?
- allows you to set Preferences for how to use your online newspaper?
Finally, one of the best tools for school may be the “Search” tool. If you are studying a specific topic, you can type a keyword from that topic into the “Search” tool and find out if there are any stories in the news containing that word.
