HOW DO I EMBED A SERIES INTO MY COURSE WEBSITE:

For PBWorks:

1. Under the Insert menu choose html/javascript
2. Paste in the code below. Be sure to replace the PlaceModeratorURLHere with the web address of your moderator instance. You can get the URL by simply going to the page of the specific moderator instance you want to use and copying it from the address bar. CLICK the checkbox Allow Javascript and then SAVE.

<script src="https://www.google.com/moderator/static/moderator-embed-api.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</p>
<div id="moderator-embed-target"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
var mod = new MODERATOR("PlaceModeratorURLHere "); 
mod.hl = "en"; 
mod.width = 850; 
mod.height = 600; 
mod.embed("moderator-embed-target");
// ]]></script>

NOTE: For mod.hl= by changing "en" to "fr" the buttons/page links will be in French or if you change to "es" it will be in Spanish, "de" for German. Try some others you may be familiar with to put the page in the target language. 

 

You can adjust the width and height numbers to make it wider or taller based on the amount of space you want to fill or scrolling you want to have students doing. These are suggested numbers based on what appears to work well in PBWorks.

 

Viewing Note: When students are working with moderator from within PBWorks, it will help to see the entire content of the series if they use the upper right arrow of the PBWorks window to hide the right-hand links. A click on the arrow hides the links and another click brings them back.

 

For all other sites:

1. You will need to find out what to click on to get to a space for placing "embed code."
2. Once you are in that space,  Paste in the code above. Be sure to replace the PlaceModeratorURLHere with the web address of your moderator instance. You can get the URL by simply going to the page of the specific moderator instance you want to use and copying it from the address bar.

NOTE: For mod.hl= by changing "en" to "fr" the buttons/page links will be in French or if you change to "es" it will be in Spanish, "de" for German. Try some others you may be familiar with to put the page in the target language.
