What can the instructor/presenter do in the Users Area?

Jump to navigationJump to search- What can the instructor/presenter do in the Users Area? Whenever a student enters the Meeting, they will appear in the Users area.
- Beside each user name, you can click on the mic icon, to mute or unmute a user. Optionally, you can also click on a lock icon, to lock a user's mic muted or unmuted.
- In the lower left corner of the Users area, you can click on the Settings icon (it looks like a wheel):
- If students have clicked on an icon, for example, to Raise Hands (for attention or in answer to your question), you can click on the link to "Clear All Status Icons"
- Don't use this: You can click on the link to Mute All Users but you would also mute yourself and/or the presenter!
- You can click on the link to Mute All Users Except Presenter. This is good setting to use when some users have speakers or mics instead of headsets-their devices can cause a great deal of noise/feedback that you can mute.
- You can now lock viewers: Webcam, Microphone, Public Chat, Private Chat, and Layout.
- Note: Don't lock viewers from using the Public Chat if they don't have a microphone, they won't be able to communicate with you!
- You can click on Breakout Rooms, to divide up your students into separate "Meeting" groups; after a time limit you set, they'll be returned to the main meeting
