Helping students to become better writers has always been the primary purpose of composition courses. How to teach basic writers to be organized in their writing can often be a struggle. However, using some fundamental color coding and the tools in Microsoft Word appears to help students. Technology is fast changing and moving forward, and it has many possibilities, but using the basic, ordinary tools available—tools we often forget about or take for granted and which are right at our fingertips—can be incredibly helpful when we show students how to use them in their learning.
