Using Hyperlinks

One of the most useful aspects of a document is being able to create links to other more in-depth information. The links, called hyperlinks allow you to turn words into clickable links to web sites.

Here's a quick tutorial on how to create hyperlinks.


Assignment:

Create hyperlinks in your information sheet on sexting. Here are the links that you'll create:

Sexting Definition - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexting
TBI - http://www.tbi.state.tn.us/
Sex Offender Registry - http://www.tbi.state.tn.us/sex_ofender_reg/sex_ofender_reg.shtml

1. Create a new folder on your Google Drive called Hyperlinks.

2. Open the Droid Serif file in your Type Test folder, make a copy and place it in the Hyperlinks folder you just created.

3. Place the links in the following locations in the document:

• Sexting Definition -  Place this link in the word "Sexting" in the header of the first paragraph.
• TBI - Place this link in the word "crimes" in the first line of the second paragraph.
• Sex Offender Registry - Place this link in the words "sex offender" at the end of the second paragraph.

After placing these links, save the file and share the folder (manersj@k12tn.net.).

This project is worth 10 points and will be graded on technical accuracy. All the links must work properly.  All work must e completed by the end of class! Please make sure that your link arrives at the instructor's computer before you leave.
