When a pop-up is blocked in Safari, you may not receive a message indicating that it is blocked, especially if you are on an iPad.  If the content does not open in a new screen after you launch the course module, you may need to turn off your pop-up blockers. Depending on which type of device you are using, you will need to follow different directions.  

Mac
