Embedding a video is simple you just have to know where to look.
In this video I will walk you through embedding a video
into a discussion post inside Desire2Learn. First off we want to go to our YouTube
video
and grab the embed code; here's my video. Now I'm going to click "Share"
below the video and then select "Embed", highlight all this text,
and copy it. Now we've copied the embed code from YouTube, we can navigate to any
HTML enabled text box
in D2L and embed the video in the message.
Let's go to a discussion board. I'm going to compose
a new post then click on this tiny button down here
that says edit HTML source. Clear the contents and the editor,
paste in your embed code and click "Update" now you'll see your embedded video.
Go ahead and post the discussion and you're
done. This same trick can be done anywhere and desire to learn
that has the edit HTML source button such as
email discussions or the Dropbox. Leave a comment stating what you liked,
still need help with, and what videos you would like to see next.
