Users Area

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

  • Whenever a student enters the Meeting, a round icon will appear to the left of their name.
  • Usually beside the presenter, a square icon will display to the left of their name, as shown in the image below.

Alt=User area, with first row: presenter icon, name, and microphone icon; second row: student name, headset icon/Listen only icon

Users Area Settings

  • In the upper right corner of the Users area, instructors can click on the Settings icon (it looks like a wheel)
  • Students can click on their name in the Users area, click on Set status and select an emoticon, such as Raise (hand), Confused, Sad, Happy, Applaud.
    • At any time, the presenter/moderator can click on the Settings icon to clear the status icons that participants have chosen.
  • In Settings, the presenter can Mute all users, but it is preferable to Mute all users except the Presenter!
    • Presenters can Lock Viewers from using different devices (webcam or microphone), stop users from viewing other participants webcams, and lock Private Chat, Public Chat and Shared notes.
      • 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, presenters can create breakout rooms to divide students into groups, for a specific amount of time.
    • If the moderator/presenter selects Save User Names in Settings, they can download a text file that contains a list of users who joined the meeting.
