One of the most common things you do in zoom as a teacher is screenshare. when you screen share it allows you to share videos PDF files and in fact anything that is available on the screen of your computer. for example it's common to use screen share as a way of talking through a PowerPoint presentation or discussing some information in a table or a graph. accessing the screen share also allows you to access the interactive whiteboard.
In this video I will take you through the key functionality of screenshare. There are in fact two different ways of using the screen share facility in zoom and many teachers don't realise this. So for example it is possible to screen share your complete desktop and this way your participants will see everything that is on your screen that you are currently focused on. the problem with doing this is that sometimes you might accidentally open screen that you don't want your students to see. so though this is a good setting it can create problems with privacy. In zoom it is also possible to share a specific window. This normally means that you are sharing a specific application like for example Google Chrome or your PDF files. The important thing to remember when you screen share like this in zoom is that if you begin to share a different window with different content then you need to reshare when you're working with zoom. Zoom will continue to share the application or window that you shared from the beginning. zoom does not move with you to the new window or application unless you press the reshare button. There are several benefits of using this way of screen sharing because it means that you can safely open different applications on your screen and know that your students are not seen what you are doing rather than sharing your complete desktop you are actually sharing a specific application from your computer.
I use both techniques when working with zoom but it is very important to understand the difference. it is also a really good idea that when you are working with zoom to make sure that you have everything ready before you start your zoom session and that means when you screen share you will see all of the different things that you want to share are already available and in the zoom window. Don't forget to that when you screen share you need to screen share audio as well otherwise when you play a video your student will not be able to hear it.
Clear and informative. Thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching it so quickly and the comment.
Russell is the best teacher I have ever encountered and I have taught for 40-plus years.
Thanks for the lovely comment Camille. I have added some new videos on Zoom here www.teachertrainingvideos.com/Zoom
Excellent. As a beginner ZOOM user I finally found someone who explained to me exactly what shows up, and "why", when I chose the Share option. I have looked at a lot of videos to explain the Sharing option. Yours is the best so far by a mile!
Great to hear! I put loads of videos on my website about Zoom and they are very popular. You might find them useful. teachertrainingvideos.com/Zoom
THANK YOU!!! This is clear and exactly what I was looking for!!
Glad it was helpful! Check this Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLqYj2sOxDkVzcrQvunlBxmkzoqw-cqTxJ.html
Thanks Russell.

I usually share my screen (where you can share your applications - one of the options is your screen).
Absolutely!!
Didn't realise it was a possibility to share your desktop at all times on Zoom so thanks for the information. As you say though, could be a smidge dangerous! Thanks Russell - keep up the great work.
Thanks Laura! I am glad my video is useful. More to come!
Perfectly clear now! Thanks so much!
Great to hear! Here is another one:th-cam.com/video/-aqdZQ-O0O4/w-d-xo.html
Your presentation is very clear. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU, once again, dear Russell, for your SUPER patience ;-)..., and for your SUPER clear explanations!!! ;-)
Thanks Rita! Here is my latest video: th-cam.com/video/-aqdZQ-O0O4/w-d-xo.html
Great info thanks mate
You are welcome
Thanks Russell. Excellent demo.
Very welcome
For my meetings I use multiple monitors. This allows me to share one screen (as full desktop share) while using my 2nd or 3rd monitor for anything I don't want others to see over the video conference. (Just be careful to share the correct screen). I get the full benefits of desktop share with the benefits of using apps others cannot see.
This is a great tip Eric. I'm doing it myself. Thanks for this comment. More videos on Zoom in this Playlist:th-cam.com/play/PLqYj2sOxDkVzcrQvunlBxmkzoqw-cqTxJ.html
Thank you. I connect my phone with my personal account to "save embarrassments " when I am screen sharing in a lesson so I can see what my stuents are seeing.
Great! Sharon I have some new stuff coming out very soon. It might be worth signing up to the newsletter on my website www.teachertrainingvideos.com/sign-up.
Excellent as always, Russell- thanks. It's useful to think carefully about what might be seen with screen sharing when sharing the entire screen instead of one application at a time, especially if you keep a lot of links on your desktop.
Absolutely! Here more Zoom videos: www.teachertrainingvideos.com/Zoom
Simple explanation, very clear.
Nigel, really glad I could help you. Thank you for the nice comment
Russell, I love this video---some great little known tips! I have always chosen "Stop Share" and started over to get to another application. So knowing that you can choose a NEW share is good to know. Another unrelated question---I LOVE your accent! I'm a Dialect Coach and would love to know how you would describe your accent. I would characterize it as London or a modern version of Cockney, but I'd love to hear what you would say about it! Thanks again. 🙂
Glad it was helpful!
I was born in Mitcham, my accent is from London.
Thanks for the lovely comment.
Thank you, very interesting. I never knew about both those options. I have always used the one where you can select, not the one that shares your open desktop. Quite right - could open something that you don't want to share.

@@ttvRussell I am already a BIG subscriber!!
Hey! Thanks for the video. I am having great success using Zoom with prospects. Even without turning on my video but now that I have my Excel presentation fine tuned I am ready for video. I use Excel live with prospects based upon several data points which they share w me on the call. The monitor I use is 45 inch wide. Every once in awhile a prospect will say it is too small and the can’t see it. How could I use Elegato to make my presentation better and have more eye contact. Any thoughts on how I should mix up the screen sharing w video? Any other guidance would be appreciated.
Consider using Elgato to optimize your Zoom presentations by setting up a dual-screen display, allowing you to share your Excel presentation on one screen and maintain eye contact through video on the other, providing a more engaging and effective communication with your prospects.
Thanks Russell this was very helpful. I was not aware of the override feature.

Thanks Debbie I have some new stuff coming out very soon. It might be worth signing up to the newsletter on my website www.teachertrainingvideos.com/sign-up.
Very precise video, thank you. When sharing screen and recording, how do I appear at the bottom like you when you started with this tutorial instead of appearing at the top?
That is actually because when I edit the recording in Camtasia, I am able to move the webcam around. In Zoom you do have some control over the webcam but each individual user can also move the webcam around when you are screen sharing. It depends on what you are doing, home much control you have over the webcam
@@ttvRussell okay great this might help if I check my webcam settings. I do move the Webcam to the bottom but it turns out back at the top right after recording.
Thanks for the response
Always informative Russell, It is very convenient however now with Zoom online teaching(school kids), one has to be very careful. But it is good to have options.
Absolutely! Here is another video: th-cam.com/video/-aqdZQ-O0O4/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for that.
No worries! I have another Zoom video for you here: th-cam.com/video/-aqdZQ-O0O4/w-d-xo.html
I really got the explanation. It was very clear. Thanks a lot! It is great to learn from your experience.
Regards
Guadalupe
Glad to help.
Great work. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Since I have a second laptop it occurs to me that I will bring that device into the "room" as a third person. Then I will see whatever it is that they see.
Great idea! Using a second laptop as a "third person" to see what others see during screen sharing is a clever workaround. Let me know if you encounter any issues or if you have further questions! 👍
Dear Russell, Can you teach me how did you minimize your screenshare bar? It's blocking my presentation. Thank you.
You can move it but yes it is annoying but in theory it should disappear after a certain amount of time but it doesn't always work. I have the same problem. I tend to move it around, depending on what I am doing
@@ttvRussell Thanks so much, Russell.
How about when you have different desktops open (Macbook) Which desktop is it going to share?
You have to tell Zoom which of the two windows you want to share. I think it offers you the option. I don't use Macbook so not 100% sure.
No share screen button when I start a meeting!!!
That is very odd and doesn't make any sense. The host always has the option to screen share. I suggest you try and contact Zoom.
Hi, thank you for sharing this info, Zoom has horrible "resources" for free accounts. Hopefully you can shed some light on an issue I had, I don't understand what happened. I was made a co-host on a Zoom meeting, and there was 1 other co-host. I was sharing my screen (only one doing so), we had a Google Slide show going with audio. It was fine for about 7 minutes, but then somehow the sound cut off and I was no longer sharing the screen. If another co-host is chatting in the chat or the host is doing something on their end, would either of those things cause my screen sharing to stop working? Neither said they stopped the screen sharing or did anything on their end. I still had internet, it didn't go to black screen, I hadn't clicked anything on my computer the whole time the scree was being shared. It was the correct application. Any thoughts or insights appreciated, thanks! :)
Tina, someone might have accidentally taken over the screen share or turned it off. You have to be careful with Zoom and make sure that only the hosts /co hosts can share and not everyone. Check your settings and make sure only hosts can share.
@@ttvRussell Thanks Russell, appreciate the prompt response. :)
I think things must have changed since because I don't have any choice it's just share entire screen or nothing
That's due to the settings. I think you can set it up that it only ever screen shares the deskop.
When using zoom on the iPad the panel with screen share and other options stays extended an blocks my view. How can I regress the panel
Donna I am sorry I don't work with an iPad and so I don't really know how Zoom works on an iPad.. sorry I can't help
I can’t find the share desktop option in the screen share settings!
Linda, you need to go to settings in Zoom and first turn it on. Then when you start a session it will be there.
Hi Russell, If I schedule the meeting can a participant share a document? If so how can it be done?
Many thanks, love your work
Yes, all participants can share stuff in the chat window or they can share things through screen share if you give them permission to use the screen share.
I just want to share my screen with 1 person at a time ... years ago, i used join me ... i just copy and pasted the free link ... emailed to the person ... then they saw my screen along with a small camera image of myself ... WTH happened !?!?!?!?
Hey there! It sounds like you're looking for a simple screen-sharing solution similar to what you had with Join.me. With Zoom, you can still share your screen with one person at a time. Instead of a free link, you can schedule a one-on-one meeting and invite the person directly. During the meeting, you can share your screen, and they'll be able to see it. The camera image feature is also available; you just need to make sure your camera is turned on before sharing your screen. Give it a try, and let me know if you have any questions! 😊
Thanks. After playing with it, I figured out how to copy the link to clipboard and then paste it into the recipient's email. Play'n with the trial offer till i am used to it ... on the white board, does one have to buy the zoom before they can send a whiteboard to the recipient? I also ordered a Wacon for 40 bucks on Amazon so That I can use a "pen modem" ...
how to share your own zoom screen

What exactly can be the danger of screen sharing. Does screen sharing allow someone to access your computer? And if I screen share a document can someone steal it, as in an original script creation?
I am not a security expert, so I honestly don't know the answer. One danger though is that you accidentally share something you didn't want people to see or you get confused by what you are actually sharing and what you think you are sharing. That was the reason for the video because it often happens.
overload and confusing
Sorry to hear that. I have more videos that you might find useful: th-cam.com/play/PLqYj2sOxDkVw0T4IsOt3xAsZPOJj5GSdQ.html
