HOW TO EMBED A YOUTUBE VIDEO INTO POWERPOINT
• Open up PowerPoint and choose a slide that is appropriate for your presentation.
• Click on View>Toolbars> Control Toolbox>More Controls. Scroll down to "Shockwave Flash Object."
• Draw a box the size you want. (It will be a white box with an X through it.)
• Right click on the box and choose "Properties."
• Double-click “Loop” so it says “False” in the box next to it.
• Double-click “Playing” so it says “False” in the box next to it.
• Copy the URL of the YouTube video (located in the box, not the address line) and paste it in the blank box next to “Movie.”
• You will need to make a few changes to your URL to make it work: Delete "watch?" Replace the equal sign with a forward slash.
• Close the “Properties” box.
• Run the slide show, clicking on the play button in the YouTube video.
• Save your presentation to where you want it. Then open it and check to make sure the video is working properly.
• Make sure you cite your source for the video.
This is also available as a handout (with pictures) in GEAR. Let me know if you would like a copy.
