The insert options are as follows from left to right, "Insert Link", "Insert Image", "Insert Video", and "Insert Table." Below are examples of how the inserted features appear in a component.
Always ensure links are accessible to students. If you include a D2L URL, ensure it corresponds to the same CRN as the course syllabus (e.g., Syllabus CRN: 12345 → D2L CRN: 12345).
See the Simple Syllabus: Adding Supplemental Materials guide for instruction on inserting an image.
The special features are as follows from left to right.
- "Emoticons" allow you to add expressive symbols or small images, such as a smiley face or an image of the earth to enhance the component and convey emotion or tone.
- "Special Characters" can be added such as Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, punctuation, arrows, math symbols, and some other miscellaneous symbols.
- The "Help" feature will display a list of keyboard shortcuts.
- The "Undo" option reverses your last action, while "Redo" restores an action that was undone.
- Use the "Clear Formatting" feature to remove all formatting and revert to the default text.
