How to use links in your blog

Making a post in a blog is easy but how to connect your post with other information is quite tricky. I learned this from my son who is in first semester doing IT. I think I should share the knowledge I have gained to those who are new bloggers.

Follow these steps. For example you want to post several notes in your log which need you to use link.

1. Write a page titled Notes. in the page write down all subjects you want to post notes.
2. Then click"publish" button.
3. Click page.
4. Then make a new page by pressing "new page" button and  title it with a name of the subjects, for an example Pengajian Malaysia.
5. In the page list down all the chapters.
6. Then click the "publish" button.
7. Copy the http address above
8. Open "Page" and point the curser at "Note" and click the word "Edit".
9. In the open page, highlight the word "Pengajian Malaysia" and click "link". A pop up will show up and fill in the title with Pengajian Malaysia in the column of "Tex to display" and paste the address you  copy just now into the column of Web address Click OK..


10. Then click "update" button. This mean the page Pengajian Malaysia has been linked to the post titled Note.
11. Click "new page" and paste the note of chapter 1. Do not forget put the title Chapter 1. Then click "publish" button"
12. Copy the URL address above.
13.Click page and point the cursor to "Pengajian Malaysia" and click "edit" and highlight Chapter 1 and click "link" button.
14. A pop up will come out again and put the title Chapter 1 into the column"Text to display" and paste the address  in the column of "Web address". Then click OK.
15. Click "update" button.
16.Do this repetitively for each chapter. After you are done, click "view blog" button. Now you can try by clicking "Note" button. A list of subjects will appear then click one of them for example Pengajian Malaysia. You will see a list of chapters you have typed in. Click any of the chapters, the note you have saved will come out.

You can ask your students to open your blog site for them to browse your notes. Besides notes, you can also put on questionaire which your students must fill in.
