Rishi was amazed to see Tanya’s report. It contained 
text of varied colour, style and size. It also had a picture 
and certain symbols before each category of books. 
Tanya had communicated her ideas and thoughts in an 
organised, systematic, effective and presentable manner 
through her report. Rishi asked Tanya how could she 
communicate her thoughts so effectively?
Tanya: Rishi, you should know that there are digital tools 
which can be used to create effective and digital documents.
