1. Log into your Google Reader account and select one of your subscription links.

2. Ensure that you are publicly sharing the article then click the Add tags link.

You will need to do this for each article you want to include in the tag bundle.

4. Once you have added tags to all the articles you want to bundle, click the Manage subscriptions link.

5. Ensure that the tag bundle is publicly available. If it's not, click on the grayed-out private RSS icon .

9. Add a title for your content in the Link Text field, then select View-->HTML View from the Text Formatting Editor menu bar.

10. Paste (Ctrl+V or Command+V) the embed code that you copied earlier into the text box and click the Submit button.

11. Click the link of your newly created item to ensure that the feed is working correctly.

12. If your RSS feed is working correctly, you will see the embedded feed in your document.

If your RSS feed does not appear to be functioning properly, it is recommended that you return to Google Reader and copy the embed code again. Then return to your Course Content item and paste in the code you just copied.
