In the Major Learning Outcomes, Content, and Instructional Methodology sections you have the option of putting text in bold, italics, or underline.  To use one of those formatting options, you’ll need to surround the text you’d like to format in some special characters:
  1. • Surround text you’d like to format in bold with two stars
  2. • Surround text you’d like to underline with two underscore characters
  3. • Surround text you’d like to set in italics with two slashes
 
Consider the following examples:
  1. • If you enter “This is an **important** point”, it will appear as “This is an important point”
  2. • If you enter “I want to //emphasize this//!”, it will appear as “I want to emphasize this!”
  3. • If you enter “This is the __name to use__”, it will appear as “This is the name to use”
 
You can choose to use just one of those options, or combine them (for example, use both underline and italics).  If you choose to use two formatting options, you’ll need to “next” the special characters.  For example:
  1. • If you enter “This is **//most important//**”, it will appear as “This is most important”
  2. • You won’t get the same results with “This is **//most important**//”
