"If embed isn't working for you, it's because your Site Admin has to enable it under the Security settings.
I like to use Vimeo for embedding because my school needs to block YouTube to preserve bandwidth.
Good luck!"

Jeffrey Hsi said… Hi Joe,
I'm just starting this whole "Flipped Classroom" curriculum this year with my AP Physics class. It's working pretty well and I'm going to try to get an online component for next year. I saw that you had previously mentioned looking for people to work on a test bank. I'm currently inputting in almost 1000 AP Physics B questions into ExamView format for upload into Moodle. Interested in sharing? =)
