• Displaying relevant articles, graphs, or multimedia.

• Assigning learners tasks based on external resources.

• Providing audio, video, or interactive content from other platforms.

Use Cases for Embedded Content

• Display a graph, table, or image that users can expand or zoom in on.

• Embed an audio clip from platforms like SoundCloud.

• Include a relevant article from an external source.

• Link to an interactive map or reference a website without copying its content.

• Embed external or internal URLs for additional resources.
