The next accessibility item that we are going to 
talk about is links.

And we're going to be talking about

giving links meaningful names,

having links to the items up here that are in the 
toolbar,

and then also having links to the items that are 
here in

the left navigation menu.

It is important to have for at least to have 
meaningful names.

This link we are looking at right here says

video transcripts.

So, that tells you when we click on this link

it’s going to take us to a document that is

a transcript of the video.

And in order to make this a link

you always have to be in author mode,

as you know to make any changes in ecollege.

Let's click on the little blue monitor here to make 
it bigger.

You need to highlight your words 

and then we need to go up here to our editor

and click on link.

Then the transcript for this video is

saved in file manager and the course.

So, I’ll click continue

and then click on, you have two choices 

you can upload a file or you can look for a file

that you have already uploaded.

and so we are looking for the introductory 
transcript.

So this is our transcript here.

Put a mark here in the radial button.

Up here where it says text to display,

it was the video transcript.

Then we need to scroll all the way down

and click add link.

And then click back on this blue little monitor icon.

Click save changes.

And then let's go back to course view

and click on our link.

And it takes us back to our transcript.

The next thing we're going to look at

are links to the toolbar

and then links at the left navigation 

if you’ll look at this page here you'll see that

we're talking about that there are documents in doc sharing

and that is a link to doc sharing.

Here we're talking about the syllabus and this is a link to the syllabus,

And here we're talking about syllabus quiz.

Let's see where that's going to take us.

That’s going to take us here to the syllabus quiz.

Again to make these words to be linked,

we have to be in author mode.

Let's click here on the blue icon make it look little bigger.

And so we're talking about that these documents are in doc sharing

so we want to, when the student clicks on the

word DocSharing that it will take him here up to DocSharing.

So we've highlighted the words,

now we go back to our link icon.

And we're wanting to link to course tool

because DocSharing is one of the tools.

So, click continue

we want the words display the DocSharing.

Document sharing is where we want it to link to,

Then we click add link and now the word is a link.

If you want the link to be a little bit more prominent,

you can select it and then bold it

and then again click on this blue icon here.

Make sure you click save changes

or your work will be lost.

Click ok.

Now let's go back over the course view

and see if that link works.

And this takes us to the DocSharing.

Okay now let's go back now and look;

you want to make a link to something over here

and the left navigation menu.

Again we need to be in author mode.

Let's make this a little bit bigger.

And we're talking about the syllabus

or the syllabus quiz.

Let's go to the syllabus first.

Highlighted the word course syllabus.

Go up here to the icon click on that

we are wanting to link to course content

because it's in this left navigation menu.

Click continue.

So, we're trying to make a link to the syllabus

and we want the words that are going to appear to be syllabus.

And then we're going to add our link. 

Again I'm going to make that bold so it will be a little bit more prominent.

Click here, so we can see our save changes button.

Click okay.

And let's click on course so we can go back and check our link.

Yes that takes us to our syllabus.

So, these are the types of things that I’m looking for

when I’m reviewing a course accessibility

to make sure that there are links to the tools

as well as to the navigation menu.

This is very helpful for students who have motor sensory

Issues; that they're not having to move the

mouse thank to the cursor. That they can

just click on the word

and it will take them to the item that they need.
