- Hi, my name is Donner from the Microsoft Store
in Farmington, Connecticut,
and today I'm gonna share with you some tips
to help you do your math, reading,
and writing work right at home.
(upbeat music)
Do you find it tedious to browse
the web for reputable sources,
or viable information for your paper?
Well, Microsoft Word Researcher
does this in just a few simple steps.
We'll go to References, Researcher,
and then we'll type in the box below here,
and we're gonna search renaissance architecture.
Once you hit Enter, you'll see all your topics to the right.
You'll have relevant topics up top,
and more sources below.
So, I like this article here,
and we'll scroll down in our document,
and we wanna take this first sentence,
so we'll highlight it,
and then we'll hit Control + C to copy,
and we'll click at the end of this paragraph,
and we'll go to the center option, Merge Formatting,
just to keep things consistent,
and then we can see that it added it
to the bottom of that paragraph,
and then we'll hit Add this source as a citation,
and then we can hit Create a bibliography as well,
and now we have a bibliography
to go along with our citation, perfect,
and it was all done through Microsoft Word Researcher.
We all learn differently.
Within Immersive Reader, all learners can improve
upon their writing and reading skills.
I already have a pre-made section made for Immersive Reader,
and it reads, "Today I went to the supermarket.
"I bought two apples, a gallon of milk,
"a loaf of bread, and ice cream."
To open this up in Immersive Reader,
we'll go to the View tab, click on Immersive Reader,
and then our text will open up.
We do have options that we can navigate
to on this right side
that can change the way we view our text.
We can change our font.
We already have increased spacing,
and we can add a theme.
I'm gonna choose green.
Then, if we go to Grammar Options,
we can show syllables, we can show nouns,
verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.
We can also go to our Reading Preferences.
Right now we have on Picture Dictionary,
so if we go over apple, it'll show us a picture.
One cool feature I like is Line Focus.
Line Focus allows you to focus
on each individual line as you read through.
The last feature inside of here is Translate.
So, you can translate this to any language.
Right now we have it by word,
which we saw when we clicked on the image,
and then we can translate by document.
So, if we translate by document,
since we're set to Spanish,
it'll translate the whole document into Spanish.
We also have Read Aloud.
These are our settings for Read Aloud.
We can either be a female, or a male.
We can also change the speed.
I'm gonna change it to 1.25,
and then I'm gonna hit Play right here.
- [Automated Voice] "Today I went to the supermarket."
"I bought two apples, a gallon of milk,
"a loaf of bread, and ice cream."
- These are all features that you can use
within Immersive Reader,
and I hope you find it beneficial as you use OneNote.
Are you the type of learner that benefits
from examples, especially in math?
OneNote Math Assistant is the perfect tool for you.
Math Assistant also lives within OneNote.
Let's do seven x squared
plus eight x
minus two equals 63.
Let's go ahead and circle it.
Now we can use our Math button on the top.
Then it'll show our equation
in the Math section to the right.
Then we can go ahead and click on Select an action,
and we can solve for x.
As we can see, both our answers pop up there,
and then we can go ahead and show the steps.
We're gonna choose Quadratic Formula.
Now, we can navigate through each step,
and this one is gonna give us a total
of 16 whole steps that we can follow
to help navigate through this complex equation.
So, this is an example of how you can use
Math Assistant within OneNote to help you solve
complex equations and show the steps
in order to get to the answer.
