How do I add Elevate resources via my VLE?

You can share individual resources or your whole module. To share a resource, click on the ellipsis icon next to the resource title, where you will find two options:

‘Copy resource link’ and ‘Copy resource embed code’.

Sharing a Resource Via Link:

This can be shared anywhere in your VLE via an announcement, discussion board, or an item on the content area of your VLE (most common approach).

Once the link is copied, you can add it to your VLE site as usual (normally into a link/URL area, dependent on your VLE). Whenever possible, set the link to “open in new tab” to ensure your students continue to have the VLE open in the original tab.

Sharing a Resource Via Embed Code:

Embed code is an HTML code that will visually embed the resource in your VLE. You will need to edit your course HTML to do this step.

1. Go to any page with a Rich Content Editor (sometimes just called content editor)
2. Click on the HTML button (showing you the page in HTML form) and paste the embed code where you’d like it to appear on the page.
3. There might also be an option to add an embed code to your page, discussion board, or announcement page, and you just need to paste the code copied earlier.
4. Once you paste the code, you can click again on the HTML editor icon to go back to the content editor, and you will be able to see your resource on the screen!

Note that depending on the size of the frame this resource embeds in, it may show the 'preview' of the resource rather than the full resource embedded. This is to ensure a user has a good experience navigating and engaging with the resource.
