Block Short Cut!

Block highlighting is one of the most taxing mousing tasks! Try this instead:

 

Shift those Arrow keys! The SHIFT button turns the ARROW keys into block highlighters. This is much easier for many students (and adults!) than the click and drag mouse function. Repeated click and drag can also invite carpal tunnel and repetitive stress injury.

 

So remember to shift those arrows!
