Press the Add option

Populate the screen with the verbiage and options you want. The figure below shows an
example. (You might want to use similar wording so that students are assured of their

chain icon (circled in the figure above). This icon will be grayed out until you select (i.e., doubleclick) a word in your text which will contain the link. In the figure above the word “here” is the
word which will contain the link. Once your word (or phrase) is selected, the chain icon will be
activated (i.e., not grayed out).

Click on the chain icon (circled in red above) and a dialogue box will appear (see figure on the
