Tips for success:
When presenting online:
- Have a rehearsal or trial run of presentation.
- Move your mouse slowly hover before clicking or taking an action. Some Internet connections may be slower than others.
- For large presentations, employ a moderator - someone who can answer chat questions or assist users while the presentation is live.
- Don't forget to stop sharing your screen when you are finished.
After you join your meeting, click the monitor icon and click Present Desktop
Then choose a monitor to present and then click the Present button below:
You will be warned that people will be able to see everything on the monitor you choose. Double-check that you selected the correct monitor and then click OK.
Next, at the top of the monitor you are sharing, you will see some sharing buttons:
- The vertical dots will move the sharing controls to another spot of your choice on the screen.
- The Give Control button will give others, who you select, the ability to control your screen
- The thumbtack icon will hide the sharing controls. They will appear again anytime you hover your mouse near the top of the screen that you are sharing.
