Create highlights and notes

Updated 09 Oct 2023

You can add highlights and notes in your book when you view course content either:

• From the Instructor Resources page

• While creating or editing an assignment

You can also create custom notes that are independant of your book or assignments.

Add highlights and notes in your book

1. Go to the location in your book or assignment that you want to highlight.

2. Drag over content—text, video links, images or a mix—to highlight it, then choose a highlight color/pattern.

3. Select New note from the menu, then type a note.

4. Select Share note to share it with students. Shared notes appear in blue/double-lines, so you can distinguish them from unshared notes.

5. Select Save.

The selected text appears with the highlighted color/pattern you chose.

• A notebook icon in the margin means the highlight includes a note.

• A 2-person icon means the highlight includes a shared note.
