Using v5 remotely such as a tutor sharing the screen with a student
You can use your Wordshark 5 or Numbershark 5 USB / Download combined with eg ‘Zoom’, 'Teams' ‘Google Hangouts’ or ‘Classroom’ in your sessions with students by sharing your screen and giving them control of the cursor/mouse. For example, here's how to do this using Zoom: Sharing the screen and giving mouse control
Equally, if your student has their own Wordshark/Numbershark, they can sign in as normal and share their screen with you. If you take control of their cursor, you can also set them work etc.
Share all windows from an application (Zoom)
As Wordshark/Numbershark open different windows from within the program, for example when playing a game, these all appear as independent windows within 'Zoom'. Unless you open a new 'share screen' each time you change the window, other participants will not see the new screen/game.
To prevent the need for opening a new 'share screen' each time, you can set 'Zoom' to share all the windows automatically:
- From within the meeting room choose the settings arrow for 'Video' and choose 'Video Settings'
- From the options choose 'Share Screen'
- Set the option to share all windows for an application
