We recommend instructors use the PC desktop computer available in each classroom for in-person or hybrid instructional activities. It is also possible to present from a PC laptop, while also accessing the room microphones and cameras for use on zoom or other meeting/recording programs.
Mac users: directions for presenting from a Mac laptop.
On the podium touch screen
- Turn on the system. By default, it should open to the PC. If not, select PC.
On your PC laptop
- Log in to UVACanvas and Zoom. Start your meeting via UVACanvas.
- Turn off (or do not join) audio in Zoom. Turn off your webcam in Zoom.
- Record to the cloud from this PC computer. (If you don't have permission to record, use your Mac's zoom to make your PC "participant" a co-host).
- Open your powerpoint or other content you wish to share.
- In Zoom, share your screen. Be sure to click the boxes to share sound and optimize video, to share DESKTOP (not just your powerpoint window).
On the Classroom PC
- Log in to the computer.
- Log in to UVACanvas. Join the meeting.
- Ensure that your Zoom window is visible to students in the room can see it. If not visible, you may need to drag the Zoom window to your second monitor. You may need to first press "ESC" on the PC keyboard, then move the window.
