nment section as usual.
Note: You MUST drag the actual mp3 file into the folder with the PowerPoint. If you only follow #3 above, the music will still be on YOUR computer and will not play for me when I open your project.
How to use video links with PowerPoint (like YouTube, etc.)
Bring up the YouTube video. While it's playing, select and copy the URL in the address bar.
In your PowerPoint, type "video" on the page where you want the clip to play.
Select that word, right click on it and choose "Insert" on the toolbar at the top.
Choose "hyperlink" and in the blank provided, paste the URL that you copied.
Test it (but you have to be in Slideshow view) and when you click that word (that should be underlined now as a link) the YouTube video should play.
Note: This works the same way with any hyperlink
You can also embed your video into your PowerPoint. This is even more convenient as it does not require a new window to open. Do a Google search for these instructions if you wish to try it.
How to submit your PowerPoint Project
When you are finished with your project, zip the folder containing the PowerPoint and your mp3's
Submit the zipped folder in the assignment section as usual.
Be aware that large files take some time to submit, so don't wait until just a few minutes before midnight!
You MUST have your mp3 files in the folder with your PowerPoint file or I can't listen to them!
How to zip your folder
Right click on the folder that has your PowerPoint and mp3s inside and select Send To Compressed (zipped) Folder
This will create a zip file with the same name as the folder:
Preferably, don't use a Mac! If you must, know that PowerPoint/Windows doesn't support QuickTime compression. Do not drag and drop or copy/paste the graphic into PowerPoint. PowerPoint for MAC makes the images into a MAC only readable picture. I will not be able to see those when I grade your project.
The only workaround that we have found is for you to save local copies of your images to the computer and Insert à Picture in PowerPoint.
