I would like to add a navigation link to a page on the far left column, where you see the links for Grades, Discussion, Quizzes, etc.. Can this be done?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Cheryl,
You are looking to use the Redirect Tool. It's in the App Center.
Add links to external web resources that show up as navigation items in course, user or account navigation. Whatever URL you specify is loaded within the content pane when users click the link.
To configure this app you specify the text and URL you’d like to add to navigation elements in the LMS, then check the areas you’d like it added to. User navigation will only appear if this app is installed at the root level.
