How do I embed something in to Blackboard / Learning Edge?

If you want to embed something like a Padlet wall or a YouTube video in Blackboard, you need to do this in a Document page.

You cannot embed items directly on the Content tab, as this works more like a table of contents for your Blackboard area.

To create a document page, select a purple plus button on the Course Content page where you want the Document page to appear.

Create link location

On the Create Item side bar that appears, select Document.

Embedding items like Padlet walls, and YouTube videos, can be done by pasting the embed code in to a HTML block.

HTML block location

For Panopto videos open a Content block, select the Insert Content icon, Content Market, and then Panopto Video Embed.
