//Use the screen shots below for step by step directions on inserting videos into wiki pages.// Curriculum Workshop- Activity Design One

Go to YouTube or TeacherTube or anywhere there is a video online. Search for the video you would like to use.

Click on the video. Below the video, click on **Share**.The URL and other buttons will appear. Click on the button that says **Embed**. When you click on Embed, the Embed code will appear (html code for the video). The code will already be highlighted. Hold down **Ctrl and C** at the same time to copy the code.


 * Edit** the wiki page where you want to place the video. Click on **Widget** on the toolbar.

In the Widgets window, click on **Video** on the left pane and **YouTube** (or whatever else you are using) in the right pane. If you are not sure, you can always use Other Video.



The window on the right will have a white area for the embed code. Click in the white area and hold down **Ctrl and V** to paste the embed code.. Then click on **Save**.



The video widget will appear in the wiki. Click **Save**.

Once you click Save, you will see the video as a playable video. Without the embed code, you have to use the URL for a video which will take the user out of the wiki and into the program with the video. This is one reason saving videos to YouTube and TeacherTube is a great option.
