Make sure your Bookmarks Toolbar is enabled. To enable your Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox, click on the star button at the top right of your browser and select View Bookmarks Toolbar.
Drag the below button and drop it in the Bookmarks Toolbar of your current browser as shown in the screenshot below
![link=javascript:t=document.getElementsByTagName('meta');d=;for(i=0;i<t.length;i++){%20%20%20%20if(t[i].name.toLowerCase()%20=='description')%20%20%20%20d=t[i].content;}location.href='http://linked.aub.edu.lb/collab/index.php/Special:FormEdit/Learning_Material/'+document.title.replace(/[^\w\-\'\:\(\)\s]/gi,%20)+'#input_5=='+document.URL+'&&input_4=='+d](/collab/index.php/File:Button_bookmark_learning_material.png)
Step 3
Anytime you are navigating and you find an interesting learning material related to your course, you can click on the bookmark directly from your current page.
Important: you have to be at the page that you want to bookmark before you click on the Learning Material Bookmark.
For example, if you are navigating and fall on the below video about Moore’s Law in YouTube, you can click on the Learning Material Bookmark.
This will automatically open a new wiki page.
The title of the wiki page will be the title of the YouTube video. The URL and the description fields will also be automatically filled as shown in the below screenshot.
Step 4
Before saving the page
- Choose a Type for the learning material (Article, Book, or Video)
- Under Covers Concept, write down the concepts that are covered by this video. When you put the cursor on this field, you will notice that a drop down list will appear. This list has all the concepts that are already present on the wiki. If the concept is already available in the list, click on it to choose it, otherwise, write it down yourself. Make sure to respect capitalization.
Important: Before you create any new concept, make sure you consult the list of concepts already present. You can see the entire list through the following link: http://linked.aub.edu.lb/collab/index.php/Category:Learning_concepts
