Links Within Assignment Submissions

I would like to be able to click on the links that are part of the documents my students submit for their assignments. Is there an easy way to do this? Or maybe Canvas could enable this feature? I want students to submit documents, but part of their documents are links to resources they plan to use. It would be nice if I could click on those links and have them open in a new window.

I would have to guess then, that the students aren't making the text hyperlinked before saving the document.  They are just text.

You can test this yourself using the student view and test student account. 

When you download the documents and view them in Word, are the links hot?
