Linking to learning objects or images/assets from a topic

In an existing topic you can create links to objects or assets in the LOR. Links to learning objects appear as links in the topic, instead of bringing the text into the topic the way creating a Quicklink during the new topic creation process does.

Import a learning object or asset in a topic

  1. On the Manage Content page, click the Edit icon beside the module with which you want to work.
  2. From the Edit Topic page click the Insert Quicklink icon.
  3. From the Category drop-down list select “Learning Object Repository.”
  4. Click Select an Object.
  5. Perform a search to find the learning object you want.
  6. Click the radio button for the learning object you want to retrieve.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Select the way you want to import the learning object: dynamic link or locked link.
  9. Click Insert on the Retrieve Object page.
  10. If you want to change how the link appears, or how the link opens, change the options in the Link Options area.
  11. If you want the link to open in a new window, select the Preview/view the content topic in a new window or tab check box.
  12. Click Insert on the Insert a Quicklink pop-up.
  13. Save the changes to the topic.
