Advanced: Screen Sharing

You can share whatever you display on your screen to your students, such as Sakai, a web site or a Word document you want to edit.

• What does an instructor need to do before they can share their screen?
  • Currently, a presenter needs to use a desktop, laptop or chromebook to share their screen.
  • You must use Chrome or Firefox as Safari, Edge and Internet Explorer don't support WebRTC enabled screen share.
  • For step by step instructions, please review these screenshots of screen sharing with Chrome and Firefox web browsers
• This 23-second video quickly demonstrates how to share your screen. In the video:
  • The left side of the video displays the instructor/presenter's screen while they are sharing it.
  • On the right side of the video, at the same time, you'll find out what the student's view is of their instructor's screen.
