2. In the menu, select Create
3. In the Create Item panel, Select Link. You can also expand or create a folder or learning module and add the link

Fill out the information in the New Link Panel.

1. Add a name for the link. If you don't add a name for the link, New Link and the date will be the default name.
2. Choose if the link is Visible or Hidden from students.
3. Paste or type the URL and select the globe icon to preview the website.
4. Type an Optional Description.

You can align a web link to one or multiple goals. You and your institution can use goals to measure student achievement across programs and curriculums. You need to save the link before you can align goals.

Students can't see the goals you align with a web link.

On the Course Content page, open the link's menu. Select Edit, and then select Align with goals to search for available goals to align with this item.
