Embed a Google Doc into your website

1/16/2014

Strong and Coginchaug teachers are making increasing use of Google Drive and Docs in their classrooms. With a few simple steps, a live, editable Google Doc can be embedded directly into your website. Posting a Google Doc (rather than just the link to one) could be a good way to make a resource like a syllabus or rubric more quickly accessible, or an embedded Google Doc could provide a forum for collaboration. See what it looks like and find the steps to embed a Google Doc here.
NOTE: embedding a live document means that viewers with editing privileges can change the file right on your website (although embedding it doesn't change the permissions. People with no access still won't be able to get to it). Check your sharing settings to make sure you don't see unwanted changes. You can set the file to 'Anyone with the link can view' to allow access without editing. To post a static, unchangeable version, embed a PDF instead.
