Learn what Tips are and how to create them

What is a Tip?

A Tip provides a small piece of practical advice or a short fact that you want to stand out. Tips work best when the message being communicated is short and simple.

Tips can stand alone or be related to a learning object in the learning object authoring environment. If a tip is related to a learning object that has been added to a Course it will only be visible within that Course and will not display as a stand-alone element in the application.
