Embedding Slides/PowerPoints

Embedding Slides/PowerPoints

OVERVIEW

If you upload a PowerPoint directly to a course via the file upload feature, it will not embed, but rather force the student to download it to their local machine. To avoid this, you can embed your PowerPoints or Google Slides into Pluto LMS pages.

Be sure not to set your share mode/settings to PRIVATE otherwise other users cannot view your content.  This is a common error with Microsoft users only sharing files with their own organization instead of publicly. 

Which ever tool you are using, please consult their support guides on how to get an HTML embed code for your presentation (sample guides below):

  1. Microsoft PowerPoint
  2. Microsoft SharePoint
  3. Google Slides
