How to Embed a PowerPoint Slideshow In Blackboard

Modified on Tue, 31 May, 2022 at 4:23 PM

Create your slideshow

First, create a slideshow in PowerPoint and save it to OneDrive. 


Open your slideshow in Office Online

Now open it in Office Online (not the app version of PowerPoint that you open on your computer). You can do this by going to MyTCC and opening OneDrive; it will open in a browser tab. Then open the PowerPoint file from there and it will automatically open in Office Online. 


Copy the Embed Code

From the File menu, choose Share and then Embed. IMPORTANT: Do not use the Share link at the upper right. It does not have the Embed option. 


Copy the Embed Code. 



Create an Item in Blackboard

In any Content area in Blackboard,  create an Item to put your slideshow in by choosing Build Content and then Item

 


Paste the Embed Code in the Item

In the content editor in Blackboard, choose the Source Code option. 



Paste the Embed Code in the Source Code editor and click Save.





Submit. 


Congratulations! You have embedded a PowerPoint slideshow in Blackboard.
