− | 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.

− | ===Meetings Advanced Interactive Features===
| |
− | 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. You can also share a video with your students! If you want to divide your students into separate groups during your Meeting, you can use the Breakout Rooms feature.
| |
− | * Polls: Here's a [http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/10overview.html#polling number of screen shots] showing step-by-step, how to add polling to your next Meeting. | |
− | * You can find Polls in two locations:
| |
− | ** If you're creating a poll "on the fly": Below the Presentation area; click on the plus icon, then select "Start a Poll".
| |
− | ** If you have created PowerPoint slides with A/B/C/D Multiple Choice lists (or True/False or Yes/No), at the bottom of the Presentation area, next to the plus icon, you'll see the Polling icon
