WebCT How To

     How you found some interesting websites that you would like to share with others? There are two ways of linking websites:

1. Modiying Links
2. Using an HTML code

If you cannot get to the Student Homepages, click here.

1. On WebCT, select the Modify or add links under "Other Actions".

2. Now you have two options. If you are adding a link for the first time, press the [Add] button.

3. The screen will look like this. Create a title for the link, and then put the web address in the URL place. (ie. http://www.google.com)

4. Now press [Add]. Your page now looks like this.

     Unfortunately, all links are automatically given that ugly link icon. I have some good news for you, though. You can change that icon to any picture you want! Here is how.

1. First you need to find an image to replace the ugly icon. It can be a clipart, a photograph, or anything. I recommend you do not choose an image that is too big or it will take too much of your screen. When you find the perfect image, right click and Save picture as...

2. Under Modify Links, you can choose the Upload icon.

3. You will see the following screen. Press the [Browse] button, find the image on your computer, press [Open]. Then [Continue].

4. Press [Continue] again. You will see the following; just press [Update].

5. Now your link looks much better! Click here.

If you are ready to continue, lets talk about Images.
