This can be useful if you have already created your presentation using PPT but you wish to add interactive slides or tasks to your resource. Therefore, if you use this method, you will not need to build the entire PPT resource from scratch using Mentimeter but you can simply embed your PowerPoint presentation into the tool. This can also prevent navigating between Mentimeter and PowerPoint during live sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will show you how to embed a PowerPoint presentation into Mentimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to embed a PowerPoint presentation into Mentimeter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-ht-blocks-messages wp-block-hb-message wp-block-hb-message--withicon is-style-danger\">Please note that we do not recommend installing the Mentimeter plugin in Microsoft PowerPoint.
