Users Area

The Users Area, in the upper left corner of your Meetings session, has been updated and simplified.

Sample Users Area with presenter and attendee names, a presenter icon in the status column beside the presenter, and a webcam icon and microphone icon in the media column beside the presenter
  • What can the instructor/presenter do in the Users Area?
    • Whenever a student enters the Meeting, they will appear in the Users area.
  • In the lower left corner of the Users area, you can click on the Settings icon (it looks like a wheel):
    • You can now lock viewers: Webcam, Microphone, Public Chat, Private Chat, and Layout.
    • 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.
    • 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!
