In this video, I\u2019ll show you how to add an image using Moodle\u2019s editor. I\u2019ll be using a Page<\/em> as an example, but the same steps work anywhere you use the editor \u2013 like in a Text and Media area<\/em>.<\/p>

To insert an image, first place your cursor where you want the image to appear. Then go to Insert<\/em> > Image<\/em>, or select the image icon in the toolbar. In the dialog window, follow the prompts to upload your file.<\/p>

You\u2019ll be asked to add alternative text \u2013 this is what is often called alt text in other applications. Alt text makes your image accessible to students who use a screen reader; it also appears if the image doesn\u2019t load, for example due to a slow internet connection. I\u2019m going to add my alt text in the box here. If the image is purely decorative, you can mark it as such by checking Decorative image<\/em>.<\/p>

Next, you can adjust the image size. You can keep the original size or set a custom one. I\u2019m going to make it a bit smaller. When you are done, select Save<\/em>.<\/p>

The image was inserted and appears underneath the text. If you need to, you can further resize it by selecting it and dragging the corners.<\/p>

So here it is, how to add an image using the editor on Moodle.<\/p>"},"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","subContentId":"4db64a27-6b5f-4b0b-93e8-7d09e2a644b0","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"title":"Video transcript: Using the editor to add an image"}],"hTag":"h4"}
