Instructors can add custom directions to a WebTest which will display to students on the WebTest introduction page.
These directions can also include links that automatically open in a new window, giving students easy access to additional resources or materials to use with the test.
Note: Links are not currently supported with WebTests using Respondus LockDown Browser or Monitor.

Log in to your Teach account and enter your Hawkes course.
-
Go to Assignments > WebTests.
-
Select Create New or the edit icon to open an existing WebTest.

Enter the display text, choose the Link Type, and enter the URL.
