Additionally, students get used to a method that is not available at home or on other computers. Using the ALT codes is very cumbersome, but all MacIntosh Programs and Microsoft Word in Windows, offer a very simple strategy to put accents over letters in different languages. This strategy, once learned, is available on every computer. For a reference of every character available, check my webpage: http://sweb.uky.edu/~wvang00/accents.html There is a pdf file to be used as a student handout as well.
