As an author, you can add a Grammarly browser extension and turn this on when you're reviewing your course before publishing.
In this article, we'll show you briefly how it looks when you're editing text in iQualify, then we'll link out to Grammarly where all the actual "how-to" information is.
What the Grammarly extension looks like in iQualify
Grammarly only starts scanning text when you have a text element or field open to edit.
So, if the Grammarly extension is on, when you open and edit a text element, you'll see any errors underlines in red. You'll also see an emoji and error count in the bottom right of the text element.
Tip: We recommend turning the extension off before you edit any text elements with tables. Grammarly seems to treat each box as a separate element to scan, so it can wreak havoc with your tables.
When you select or hover over an error, you'll get a bit more information and a suggested correction.
We also love the tone detector (shown with an emoji on the bottom right of the text element).
We find this extension really useful for that last check or review for errors before publishing.
Note: Grammarly uses up a little of your device's processing power when it's running, so, if you're finding things a little slow, turn it off while making larger edits.
