Adding PowerPoint as a PDF File

You can convert your PowerPoint to a PDF file before uploading it to the learning environment. Using this approach, the steps to upload the PowerPoint to the learning environment are identical, but you would first save the PowerPoint file to PDF.

Step-by-step Guide

  1. Using Microsoft PowerPoint, open the file

  2. Click on File > Save As

  3. Select the ā€œPDF (*.pdf)ā€ option for the file type

  4. Click on the ā€œSaveā€ button

  5. In the learning environment, go to the course in question

  6. Turn editing on

  7. Drag and drop your file in the main content of the course

Your PowerPoint file (in PDF format) is now part of your course and your learners can access it simply by clicking on it.

Pros:

  • Easy

  • Can be open by most browsers (without the need to have a Microsoft PowerPoint viewer installed on the userā€™s computer or mobile device)

Cons:

  • You canā€™t really track that the users have read the PDF file. You can only track that theyā€™ve clicked on it.
