Late Bird on the topic General Q&A

Do you think that it is easier to demonstrate how to create a link or have the students to independently create it with written instruction?http://forum.code.org/t/u3-day-1-2-general-q-a/1833?u=tawanasw_40

is there perhaps a way to use guiding questions to have the students do some exploration on how a link is created or what might we look at in our tools options to create a link.
