Useful Skill

By Toni Paxton

Something I found useful in this class was the Hyperlink. I would like to show you how to use this successfully. When Ms. Cline would have us submit our blogs to her through the assignment tab on blackboard as a hyperlink I had a hard time at first, so I thought I would try to do a power point demonstration on how it is done.

Choose the assignment week you are working on.

Assignment page

After you have chosen the assignment you will click on the green title.

Assignment

This is what the assignment page looks like before you enter your website that you want to “link”

Submission page

After filling in the blog page and publishing it you will highlight the website and right click the mouse, copy, and go back to blackboard.

Web Page

When back on blackboard you need to right click on the mouse and paste your web site in the box.

Paste Site

Next step is to highlight your web site that you pasted in your submission box.

Highlight

After you highlight your web address you are going to click on the hyper link icon.

Hyperlink

Be sure that the URL box is clear before you add the information you want in here.

Hyper link box

Paste your website address in this box and hit submit. This will link your site so all the teacher will have to do is click on the link and it will take her or him

directly to your homework page.

Paste site

If you linked correctly this is what it should look like.
