Use the Embed screen to embed rich content into your online training. Engage your users by adding surveys, podcasts, forms, calendar bookings, maps, and more to your Course.

What is the Embed screen?

The Embed screen is a simple Lesson screen that allows you to embed content from third-party platforms and websites into a screen inside your course.

Although you can embed content into other screens using the text editor, the Embed screen was designed and optimized for displaying embedded content, meaning that your embeds will look great!

When should you use the Embed screen?

There are a number of ways to use the Embed screen; here are just a few:

Surveys

Embed a survey to get feedback from customers or learners. You can use Typeform, Survicate or Survey Monkey to create surveys or polls to get feedback on your training or business.

Maps

If you are onboarding new team members you can use Google Maps and embed the company location into your onboarding course. Talking to customers? Embed your location to show them where your organization is based.

Forms

Use Google Forms or Typeform to collect useful data from your audience. This could be details on their working-from-home setup, customer information, employee details and more.

Calendar Booking

Use your favorite calendar booking platform, such as Calendly, to book a session with a team member. If you are using a Course for lead generation, then allow a prospect to book in to speak to your sales team.

Podcast

Embed a podcast from Spotify to support an idea in your course. You can provide the content and then follow up with a Pop quiz to check that the content has been understood.

How do you use the Embed screen?

Step 1: To get started, add a new Lesson to your Course, or navigate to an existing one. Click the ‘Add screen’ button in the lesson on the course sidebar menu.

Step 2: Select ‘Embed’ from the screen select drawer under the ‘Standard screens’ section.

Step 3: Give your screen a title and click the ‘Add screen’ button to confirm.

Step 4: By default, the Embed screen displays your screen title, and an optional description field. To embed content, simply paste the embed code for the content you want to embed into the page and click the return button on your computer. If the link code is valid, your content will display immediately inline.

FAQS

What content can I embed in the embed screen template?

Yes, you can embed any number of Embed screens into your course.

Does the Embed screen work on mobile devices?

Coassemble is fully mobile responsive—so your content will look great on any device.
