| − | ===Meetings Basic Features=== | |
| − | For most of your meetings, you'll want to see who has arrived at the meeting, by viewing the User area; and you'll want to upload and display your presentation. If any of your students wants to "Listen only" or does not have a headset or speakers, you can communicate with each other by using the Chat box. If you want to record and share your Meeting, you have many options, provided you set up your meeting with the "Recording" feature.

| |
| − | Sometimes, you may want to use the whiteboard features, to draw on your presentation. Also, it can be helpful to use a different layout to emphasize different Meetings features. Some instructors like to share their webcam with their students, and/or want their students to share their webcams, too.

| − | ===Meetings Advanced Interactive Features=== | + | ==Web Conferencing from Start to Finish== |
| − | We strongly suggest that you practice these features before your meeting. You can provide ad-hoc polls, or update your presentation, to generate polls during your presentation. If you need to demonstrate an application, such as Word, Excel, or review content on a web site, you can share your desktop with your students. But to share your desktop, you '''must''' install Java on your desktop. If you want to divide your students into separate groups during your Meeting, you can use the Breakout Rooms feature.
