• This is the first slide or page of the module
  that you will create. The first page can be an
  introduction to your subject, objectives, or the
  main menu/section of your module.
• Located in the lower right hand corner of the
  page/screen is an arrow. The arrow is a visual
  symbol commonly used for navigation. The right
  arrow is a visual cue telling the user that there
  is more content. To create a visual icon, you
  need to add text to the arrow.

• This is page two of your module. As the user
  progresses in the module, you need to keep
  her/him engaged in the material by allowing them
  to go forward and backward. On the lower right
  hand corner of the screen are two Vlicons. The
  right Vlicon allows the user to move on and
  continue and the left Vlicon allows the user to
  go back and review.

When you select the rectangles outline and it
looks like this, you are in text mode and should
see the I bar blinking. You can type or hyperlink
the word when you dont see a yellow diamond.
When you see the yellow diamond, you are placing
the hyperlink on the Vlicon, not the word.
When adding a hyperlink to the Vlicon, make sure
you click on the Vlicon and not the word. Make
sure you see the yellow diamond before adding the
hyperlink to the Vlicon.
