Training Students with the Office Assistant

[JoeS]

I teach elementary grade students (K-5) and would like to automate and save
lessons on how to use Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.... integrated in lessons
we are doing in the classroom. Is it possible to customize the Office
Assistant with voice instruction and save the lesson for future use? I am not
sure if I am explaining this correctly- what I would like to do is have a
student open Word, for example, and have the office assistant explain how to
open a specific document and show each step of the process in the way a
student in kindergarten would understand- and save this lesson for reuse.

The Office Assistant is no longer being used in new versions of Office. I
wouldn't start using it now.

And I don't think you can do what you want. Look at something like Camtasia
(http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.asp) to do what you want.

Thanks for your reply- I had a feeling this was no longer supported.

Camtasia could help you. Check it out. I think there's a free version.
