1. Can I hyperlink my documents within LiveText?
Yes, you can! Follow
these steps:
-
Open the document in
which you want to place your your old LiveText
items. Click the edit link corresponding
to the section where you wish to place the
reusable content. You are now in the "edit"
mode.
-
When you are in the editing
page that looks like a Word Document, you
will see a toolbar directly above the space
provided for you to type in. This
toolbar gives the options to right align,
left align, etc. There is a button
for hyperlinks outside of LiveText, and
next to it is a button (icon) to
insert a LiveText link. Click
on that button.
-
In the window that pops
up, locate the document you wish to reuse.
It can be a project, lesson plan, portfolio,
etc. you have created before. Place a check
mark in the box corresponding to that item.
-
Click on the link add
checked at the top of that window.
The name of the item will show up in the
area where you would type for your word
document.
-
Click [Save], and continue
on in your LiveText account as you would
normally.

2.
How do I redo and resubmit a particular assignment
after reviewing the comments by my instructor?
To redo an assignment or
make any changes to it, you just need to browse
to that assignment in your LiveText account,
and click the edit link to get to the
Word-like editing page. Then make the necessary
changes and hit [Save section] button, and then
the finish link. Now you have made the
changes in your assignment, but the instructor
still has the old copy. So you need to resend
the assignment to your instructor. There are
two ways to resubmit your work:
-
Use the standard “Share”
process you perform to submit your work,
OR
-
Use the “resend”
option. For this, click on My Desk.
Under the ‘Collaborations’ heading
on the left, click the Reviews link,
to get to your reviews page. Under ‘Sent
for review’, locate the assignment
you were required to redo. To the right
of it, there are links ‘view’
and ‘resend’. Click the resend
link. You are done.

3.
I know how to share my portfolio with my instructor.
But, how do I share my lesson plans and projects?
The sharing process in LiveText is similar,
regardless of if it is a project or lesson plan
or portfolio etc. From your My Desk area, click
on the project you need to share. When
in that document, click the Share link
on top and lookup your instructor as a reviewer/assessor.

4. There are
a lot of options under templates in my LiveText
account for different classes. Will I use all
these before graduation?
No, you will not use all the templates for
before graduating. Your instructor will inform
you about the template to use for the
assignments in his/her class. Apart from those
class-specific and program specific templates, you are not required to use any
other templates. For example, if there is a template
for ART 2053, you would not use it unless you
took that particular class.

5. When do you renew your
LiveText subscription and how?
The LiveText membership you have purchased
is good for four years since the day you activated
it. However, at this point you do NOT have to
renew your LiveText membership. LiveText has
not turned anybody "off" yet, and your account
is alive as long as you use it regularly after
the four years.
