  • You can embed videos and presentations into a content page. Keeping the media all together like this will ensure that your students don't accidentally miss a crucial piece of content.
  • Some content is naturally text heavy. A large solid block of text can be overwhelming to learners. Always look for opportunities to "chunk" the material into manageable "bite-sized" blocks of information. This will help your students not only to learn the material but to retain that learning.
  • External links will show up in a frame on your content page. This prevents students from getting lost or distracted by other tabs on their web browsers.
