Some apps are installed within the Rich Content Editor (e.g. YouTube, Dropbox). To add an app as a Module (e.g. LibGuides, PlagScan, Turning Technologies), click on Modules (Note that you must have followed the steps from the previous page to Add the App to the course before you can add it as a Module).

Open Modules

Click on the + sign.

Add Content

Under Add Item, click on the drop-down box and select External Tool.

Select Item Type

Select the app you wish to use, then enter a Page Name (2). Add the URL if you were given one or if you configured the app manually with a URL (1). The URL may automatically be added, depending on the external tool.

Set External Tool

When you are ready, select Add Item. The app should now be added to the Modules section. Be sure to publish it when you are ready for your students to use it.

View Module

If you are adding a LibGuide, click on the LibGuides title.
