6.5 Embed - Video

The "Embed-Video" block provides an easy method of embedding a YouTube video in a page.

When using video on the site, it must be closed-captioned and have a transcript available to meet federal accessibility standards.

Video is a great way to draw a visitor into a site and present information. However, poorly done video can just as easily turn a visitor away. Use discretion with video choices. Quality matters.

Example
