Here are the Timestamps - Thanks for Watching! 1:41 - Enabling hidden features 2:49 - Creating a poll inside a meeting "on the fly" 3:30 - Adding a poll to a new meeting 5:50 - Using a poll in a live meeting 7:20 - Reactions and non-verbal feedback 9:25 - Breakout Rooms
Hey Steve - love your work! :-) Your tip for "Enabling hidden features" at 1:41 - to clarify, there is nothing on my Settings page which mentions "features" or "poll". I've read the Descriptions over and over but nothing fits. As you don't show where the "Poll" might appear on the page, it hasn't been possible to find it. After reading many Zoom support pages, which are not up-to-date - the Polls cannot be found. Peter Emery says below, "Polling is unavailable with free/basic Zoom accounts." and I suspect that is the case.
Thank you for this and all your videos! About breakout rooms, I wonder if participants can self-select the breakout room they are interested in attending. I'm pivoting a conference now and wonder if the host can create breakout rooms (e.g. each one with a theme) and then the participant sees the options and chooses the breakout (theme) they want. Thanks
sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
@Nicolas Jaziel i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
COllege students want to simply sign into zoom and then sit back and look on their cell phones during a boring lecture where they learn nothing at all. This is what the high tuition buys ya! I prefer to break out and have them work in teams rather than engage in a worthless lecture they are not even listening to. Thanks for these tools that can help me keep them working, learning and interacting which are the soft skills that are so needed in the US.
I am 56 years old and will be teaching my class on Zoom for the first time on 7/19/2020. I am learning from you and will continue to binge watch. Thank you for the videos.
Hi Steve, I just wanted to take 5 minutes to thank you for your videos on Zoom and other products. I have found them to be both clear, concise and accurate, which allows me to view, learn and then get on with my work, and implement what I have learnt. I am a Freemason in Melbourne Victoria, Australia and also the head of my Lodge. In these COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns, Zoom has been a tool to engage my membership, and has been a "substitute" for our physical meetings in a Lodge room. Polls and Breakout rooms were two features I was thinking of implementing and your tutorial has now given me the confidence to proceed. Many thanks again! Harry
I use breakout rooms for my online teaching. For education this is HUGE! And miles ahead of other platforms which are trying to compete. - I can manually create them so I can decide who can team up with weaker students. - They can do a task in the room then come back and report back - or they can prepare a presentation together. - You can swap people around from a room to a different room. - You can click the option where they DON'T need to accept the invite (previously had students hanging outside the rooms because they hadn't clicked) - You can manage whether they are allowed to leave the room and come back to the main meeting … or not … I select NOT - You can decide whether different time options to count down the end of their breakout meeting - You can beam a message into all the rooms - People in the rooms can share screen with each other in the room, which is very useful - Polls - you can have several polls in each meeting, the polls are kept in THAT meeting in the Zoom settings, so that you could essentially use it whenever you go back into that room. - this means you can prepare different polls for different meetings
Hey, Neil. Thanks SOOO much for all these details. Can a POLL be launched just inside ONE breakout room and not the others? So, if I've understood you, I can have lots of polls created in advance, but can I use different polls in different rooms? Make sense?
@@emilycotton5541 nope ... you can jump in and out of breakout rooms, you can broadcast a simple message into all of them from outside; but anything else you want them to do, you need to set up a different way. Polling works only in the main room.
Thanks for explaining the polling feature! We not only use breakout rooms to "conference" with unruly students, but as a Special Educator in a collaborative class, we also use breakout rooms to help students or re-teach them confidentially during class. You're the best! - on to more weeks of remote teaching...
Wow! Brilliant, as ever. I’m just finishing my book on how to manage teams remotely and these features are going in. Thanks Steve, you’re in my will...
Useful thanks. Top tip if you are using Breakout rooms for quizzes. If you ask the questions before breaking out into teams you can copy them into chat (everyone) and provided participants have their chat panels open before they drop into teams the questions remain available in chat to argue - I mean agree of course - over. If a picture round and you have it enabled you can also add a file to chat before they split. Someone can open it and then share in the breakout room.
I am trying to increase my tech skills during this stay home period. I tried 3 different presenters to learn google. I liked your presentation the best by far. So now I subscribed, also new to me. So thank you very much for teaching us.
Dude! I love your videos. You are such a great trainer. Thanks so much. I watched one of your earlier videos and asked a question but I watched another one and found the answer! Wonderful channel
Steve, thank you to you and your participants for an excellent presentation. Your video content, presentation pacing, video production & on-screen presence are the best I've seen on TH-cam and broadcast television. Have any of the cable news channels asked to interview you regarding the Zoom-Boom? Would be well deserved exposure.
Steve, thank you, just wanted to say your videos are great. Well paced, clear audio, great information and love the way you practicably demonstrate each feature thoroughly and in its entirety. This makes it easy to then understand and see how we can implement these features ourselves. I'm off to storm a castle!! :-)
Thanks Steve. Im giving my first teaching session next week and have experienced these features when being taught (Spanish!) by others but had no idea how to use them. They make a session SO much more interesting than just the single screen being talked at method...and thanks to your live demo and easy to understand instructions, Im confident that I could use tham too!
I am a teacher and this session really helped me learn about zoom for my virtual classes. The breakout rooms is an excellent feature for my students when they are doing think-pair-share activities online during this 2020 pandemic. I also like how I can join in and give each group my feedback in the breakout rooms. Thank you!
Steve!! I’m a huge fan!! Thank you so much for providing such excellent and well presented content. I’m one of those teachers who have found herself having to learn how to teach and engage students remotely. Your videos have been a lifesaver. Keep up the excellent work!
Really helpful Steve. This was my first intro to the polls and breakout rooms after using Zoom for a while now. This definitely impacted our use going forward. Thanks!! Avi
Super easy to understand and I love how you were showing us this on the fly...it's going to be awesome to be able to kinda replicate what I would do in face to face workshops. Thanks for the tips and keep em coming. You are definitely my go to person around this stuff - thanks heaps.
Thx for the info on polling, much easier to see a video than read directions. The break out rooms can still be confusing though, sometimes all members get a Join invite and not sure how to keep some in the main room. Also would like to see how one group can leave, if done early, rather than closing all the rooms.
Great clip as always (LOL good (: When you showed the part about the green screen, you mentioned being able to adjust the settings on your camera to zoom in. I have a Logitech 920 but can't find a zoom setting the device or on 'camera' on my PC. Thanks for any insights you can share!
I look forward to your videos, thanks. I'm hearing things about zoom that concern me. I think I'll wait until the verdict is in regarding its security.
You can shorten the time for the break-out room sessions going back to the main session in options.60 Seconds can be quite long. Also the "move to" is if you decide to move people from one break-out room to another. The thing I haven't figured out yet is how to share a screen in all the break-out rooms.
Hi Steve, another great video. I’m going to using Zoom to do a string of management training courses in the next month - and these videos are super helpful. If you have time - how would you get people in a breakout room to work on a virtual whiteboard and then share that whiteboard to the rest of the group when the breakouts are finished?
I think it would help a lot of people if you show how to use self-select breakout rooms, a newer feature. This might drive teachers crazy, but I am seeing as a pastor, and a leader of a non-profit watercolor club, having a place before and after a meeting where people can chat with groups of other people (going from one breakout room to another to chat with a friend you see there), can help recreate the kind of chatting that happens in face to face meetings. This can help maintain and grow relationships that otherwise tend to wane during covid restrictions on face-to-face meetings.
Very nice job....I'd have more confidence if you would have tried the break out rooms feature before attempting to teach it. But, appreciate your faciitation.
The response options in chat (with automatic counting) were moved to reactions and are no longer polled (and yes/no is not permanent any more). Has anyone found an equivalent out-of-the-box solution that does not require polls?
Great info! -- again. However, the closed captions cover up the meeting tools at the bottom of the Zoom screen, so we can't see what you're doing there. :-)
I use captions as well and I really appreciate it when they are properly edited, as they are here. It's frustrating that creators aren't able to move the caption box. Viewers can temporarily click and drag the caption box, but once the new caption appears it reverts to the default position.
Steve, I've been following you for years and love what you're doing! Do you have a video that shows your studio setup? And, do you use zoom for your webinars now or what do you prefer? The last video I see that you did on ecamm live was a year ago? Wha Thant is your take on that now? Thanks for all the great content!
I really appreciate all the work you are doing with Zoom. These videos have been a lifesaver for me. I can assign people to breakout rooms individually or at random. I'd like to be able to assign a specific person to each room as the committee chair and randomly assign the remaining students. How can I do this?
Jeffrey Dimsdale. I shared this with another commenter above! I would suggest allowing Zoom to assign the group to rooms. You could at that point move specific people to whichever group you’d like. It’s worked for me for my classroom for this specific purpose, and it’s a fast process. Good luck!
Breakout room !st experience-host did not tell us how many were joining - so we kept waiting.for others. There were 84 attending but only 2 in our room. We wasted time waiting and did not address the question we were given.
When imparting a workshop, what do you do to just you, the speaker, appears in the screen and nobody else so that they can appreciate the workshop in the whole screen
I am using Zoom for remote support and found that you cannot do BOTH Breakout Rooms and Support. If Support is turned on, you cannot turn on Breakout Rooms. Just an interesting tid-bit
@@dottotech Yes, we are setting things up to be able to help our Hilton Head Island Computer Club Volunteers help our Members remotely through Zoom. I don't know that we need the breakout rooms for our purposes at this point, but it is good to know (and note) that you cannot do both Breakout Rooms & Support... It's either one or the other. Thanx again '-} Jolyn
How do you save the poll results after you close the poll. We have a poll at the end of the meetings asking if participants want a coach to contact them. I need the results saved for later so I know who to contact.
Yo Dotto... little poetry there. Can you use polling in the breakout rooms. So set up 4 rooms with four different polls etc. Come back together and each group reports. THANKS
Thank you for your videos! I am Presbyterian minister in Surrey B.C. and breakout rooms are great for our "coffee" time after our worship service. A great way talk to people you would not normally talk to on a Sunday. I have a question, I tried to ask the Zoom help line but unfortunately I was no. 242 and did not want to wait. Do you know if there is a way to pre-assign people to specific rooms and at the same time have Zoom put the remaining people in other rooms? Thank you again for your helpful videos. God bless, Rev. Geof
I’m not an expert either, Rev. Geof, but I would suggest allowing Zoom to assign the group to rooms. You could at that point move specific people to whichever group you’d like. It’s worked for me for my classroom, and it’s a fast process.
There are two ways to assign people ... random or manual. I have a class with specific work groups, I have to create the number of rooms and assign people according to.their groups. Another option is randomly assign, then switch a few people around into a different room with the MOVE option. You cannot pre-assign people who are not in the meeting.
Thanks , please advise for Polling , is it possible to know who has voted and who not ? It only shows 3 out of 4 Attendees, but no names, appreciate your help
Steve: Another good one on those three ZOOM features. I may be wrong, but I have set up a regular meeting for the next 6 wks. It seems that I cannot invoke the polling feature for an individual meeting AFTER I have created the series. Also, I don't think the breakout room feature is available for the free accounts.

If you have time - how would you get people in a breakout room to work on a virtual whiteboard and then share that whiteboard to the rest of the group when the breakouts are finished?
The 1st 2 ones are only available on the paid version O was sooo confused when I had the free version but I play for it now so its fine
Excellent video thank you sir
Where in one's Settings does one set up non-verbal cues like you discuss at the 7:00 part of your video?
Ron, it is called "Non Verbal Feedback" in the settings
@@dottotech Thanks, I just found it under the basic settings.
Polling is unavailable with free/basic Zoom accounts. Within meetings, hosts & co-hosts are unable to vote, the option just isn't there.
I was looking at my settings and it says that it will be available at Zoom version 5.3.6 (if not mistaken) for free accounts
@@KevinAldenSantoso That its good news, that's only four versions away, Zoom updated to 5.3.2 today.
I can't find the polling toggle and it's February 2021. I need to give a seminar next week and would really like to use it.
@@lindalangeheine5787 Does your account level support it? The setting is in My Settings on the website, not within the app.

I'm not seeing the polling option on the free basic account for Zoom, is that a feature only available to paid "Zoom Webinar" accounts ?

A great way talk to people you would not normally talk to on a Sunday. I have a question, I tried to ask the Zoom help line but unfortunately I was no. 242 and did not want to wait. Do you know if there is a way to pre-assign people to specific rooms and at the same time have Zoom put the remaining people in other rooms? Thank you again for your helpful videos. God bless, Rev. Geof
I don't think so, but I am certainly not an authority. But if you find a way be sure to let us know! Glad you are finding the videos helpful.
I’m not an expert either, Rev. Geof, but I would suggest allowing Zoom to assign the group to rooms. You could at that point move specific people to whichever group you’d like. It’s worked for me for my classroom, and it’s a fast process.
There are two ways to assign people ... random or manual. I have a class with specific work groups, I have to create the number of rooms and assign people according to.their groups.
Another option is randomly assign, then switch a few people around into a different room with the MOVE option. You cannot pre-assign people who are not in the meeting.
Thanks , please advise for Polling , is it possible to know who has voted and who not ? It only shows 3 out of 4 Attendees, but no names, appreciate your help
Steve: Another good one on those three ZOOM features. I may be wrong, but I have set up a regular meeting for the next 6 wks. It seems that I cannot invoke the polling feature for an individual meeting AFTER I have created the series. Also, I don't think the breakout room feature is available for the free accounts.
