Navigating your tools in an AAT assessment

Here we show you how to find the highlighter tool during your AAT assessment.

Highlighter

At present the highlighter tool can be found along the right-hand side of the assessment. 

Following an update on 14 May, the highlighter tool will be located in the “tools” button at the top of the assessment window.

On activating the highlighter a popup window will open, which allows you to control your highlighting.

While “Edit” is selected, new highlights can be added to the assessment by selecting the text you wish to highlight. When it is not selected, the highlights remain, but no new highlights can be added until “Edit” is selected again.

The “Clear” button will clear the highlight selection for that task.

Closing the Highlighter popup will hide the highlighting but it will re-appear when you re-launch the highlighter tool.

Calculator

At present the calculator can be found along the right-hand side of the assessment.

Following an update on 14 May, the calculator will be located in the “tools” button at the top of the assessment window.

All other functionality of the calculator will remain unchanged.
