Users Area
The Users Area, in the upper left corner of your Meetings session, has been updated and simplified.
- What can the instructor/presenter see in the Users Area?
- Whenever a student enters the Meeting, they will appear in the Users area.
- Usually beside the presenter, a "presenter" icon will display in the Status column, beside their name.
- Common Media icons that are displayed are: a webcam, a microphone, and a "speaker" icon, which denotes that "Listen only" mode has been chosen by the participant.
- In the lower left corner of the Users area, you can click on either the "hand" icon, to display your mood, or the Settings icon (it looks like a wheel):
- Participants can click on the "hand" or status icon, too; at any time, the presenter can click on the Settings icon to clear the status icons that participants have chosen.
- The presenter can Mute all users, but it is preferable to Mute all users except the Presenter!
- You can Lock Viewers from using different devices (microphone/webcam), and Public and Private Chat.
- 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!
- Also, in the Settings area, you can click on Breakout Rooms to divide students into groups, for a time limit you set; students will be returned to the "main" Meeting room after the time limit expires or the moderator ends the Break Room session.
