Inserting Images into Moodle

Sometimes you see a cartoon or image on a website and you've just got to share it with your class. You can easily add the image to your course Moodle site.

This video highlights two ways to insert the image. NOTE: neither option includes copy & paste. While the copy & paste function works to insert an online image into a Word Doc or even a PowerPoint (although this is not an ideal practice) copy and pasting into Moodle will NOT work. Most images will bring along pages worth of code. Instead of actually seeing your picture or cartoon on your Moodle page, you'll either see gobbledygook or nothing (but the code will take over your text box and you'll find it's no longer editable).
