Embed PowerPoint Slides from One Drive to a CLE course

Oftentimes, faculty may find it helpful to embed PowerPoint slides directly into the CLE course. This makes it easy for the instructor to access and document the file. Additionally, once embedded in the CLE course, further editing of the slides on One Drive will be automatically reflected in the course. This will save the instructor time in deleting the slide and re-uploading the newest version in the course.

Follow the steps to embed PowerPoint Slides into a CLE course:

Overview the steps

Embedding PowerPoint slides from One Drive to the CLE includes two main procedures. First, we need to get the embed code from OneDrive. Second, paste the embed code to the Atto text editor in the CLE. The detailed steps will be explained below: 

Get the embed code

1. Log in your One Drive with your UCSF account: https://office.live.com/start/PowerPoint.aspx

2. Create PowerPoint slides or upload an existing PowerPoint file to your OneDrive. (Storing the presentation online is what allows you to embed it on any other web, including the CLE course.)

3. With your PowerPoint slides open in the one drive, click the File tab in the ribbon.

4. From the dropdown menu of the File tab, click Share.
