In reply to Richard Fesler. Yes, the document viewer in D2L will not support interactive features, but it will allow students who don't have PowerPoint to view the slides.

Question, I uploaded a power point file to class “Content” D2L. The slides were animated and have a voice narrated content. When I checked to see if the file had uploaded correctly, I observed the following. First, the file opened but did not give an option to view as a slide show. Second, the animation did not work and although the slides showed the narrative icon, there was no sound.
So does this mean the students have to download the file from D2L to view with all the features?
thanks

I don’t know the first thing about D2L or Brightspace or remote teaching though I am finishing my 54th year of teaching French. Where should I start to get ready for Spring term?
