Embedding Content with HTML | Blackboard Ultra | Seneca Polytechnic

Embedding is the process of integrating content. You can embed content from YouTube, Padlet, H5P, and other sites that have "embed codes," or a block of HTML that renders a visual element from another site. 

Note: HTML object cannot be added to assessments or tools.

2. Select the ellipsis next to the file name. The drop-down menu is displayed.
3. Select Edit from the drop-down menu. 
4. Select Add HTML. Note: This feature is visible when you first open a document, or when you select the plus icon (+) to create a new block in the document.
