Are there sites you or your students visit frequently? Do you want your students to easily be able to go to a site without typing a long URL? Do you want to limit your students Internet use to only a few sites? Make it easy on them and on yourself by creating a desktop shortcut for each of those sites:

• Go to the Web site you want to create a shortcut to.
• Click File>Send>Shortcut to Desktop.
• A new icon should pop up on your desktop. Note the arrow on the icon below. That tells you the icon is a shortcut to a site or document.
  
  
  
  
• If you want to rename the icon, right-click the title beneath the icon and select Rename.
• You or your students now can double-click the shortcut to get to that site.
