How to use Screen Sharing in a Zoom Meeting
While in a Zoom meeting you can use the screen sharing function to share one of the windows in your computer with the pother participants of the meeting. This is typically used by the presenter or instructor, but can be used by anyone in the meeting who needs to share something displayed on their computer, with others in the same meeting. You can share things like a PowerPoint presentation, a web page, or a video you’re playing on your computer.

On your own computer or mobile device use the Zoom app or Desktop zoom software to join the meeting using your own Zoom account, or as guest (you do not need an account or to be signed in to join the meeting). Typically you join a Zoom meeting by simply clicking the link sent to you via email; for some meetings registration is required which means you’ll receive two emails – the first inviting you to resister, to which you must respond, the second email will contain your personal and unique meeting link. **NB Only register once for each meeting you’ll attend where registration is required. If you accidentally register more than once, the subsequent registrations will be ignored by Zoom. Do not cancel your registration – if you do you will not be able to join the event when the time comes. If in doubt about this please contact OAJA admin.

As you join a Zoom meeting please note how your name is displayed in your Zoom app and adjust it if necessary, to ensure that others know who you are.

Screen Sharing:
**NB: first you must prepare the window(s) on your computer that you want to share, which might include a website page, a PowerPoint presentation, a single image – whatever you want to share, open it first on your computer, before the Zoom meeting where you want to share something from your computer.Then, in your own Zoom app window:
click the Share Screen button at the bottom of the Zoom window
in the next window click the icon for your computer screen, or one of your available open windows, then click the Share button
now your Zoom window shrinks smaller and moves to the side, allowing you to view and control the window that you’re sharing
be aware that whatever is displayed on your computer screen may be shared and viewed by others in the meeting, so it’s best to maximize the window you want to share
you can Pause sharing or Stop sharing using the buttons that appear at or near the top of the window you’re sharing (not in the Zoom window).
