Pages are where you can add your own content and educational resources to your course. You may want this content to be part of your course but it may not necessarily belong in an assignment, or you may want to refer to it in multiple assignments. Pages also offer an area for you include text, video, and links to your files. Pages can even include links to other pages. Pages are essentially wikis with a more usable interface, and you can set specific user access for each page.

Adding a Page from the Course Navigation

Click the Pages link from the Course Navigation.

Click the Create New Page button on the Sidebar.

Type a name for the page in the New Page Title field and click the Create button.

From the Add Content screen, you may add content to your page using the Rich Content Editor content area [1]. You may link to existing pages, files, or images using the Content Selector [2]. Content can also be input as HTML by using the Switch Views editor link [3].

You can choose to hide the page from students by selecting the Hide this Page from Students checkbox. You can decide who can edit the page by selecting the Who can edit this page drop down menu. You can also notify users that content has changed by selecting the Notify users that this content has changed checkbox [4].

Click the Save Changes button to save your work [5].

Once you have created your page(s), we suggest that you add it to the Module section of your course. This makes it easier for students to locate and/or access the content page while doing their course work.
