Important Note on OPTIMIZING APPLICATIONS YOU ARE SHARING

Screen-sharing Excel Files

  • The quality of your meeting experience will depend on the participant’s Internet speeds and bandwidth, which may be variable and unreliable.
  • To ensure a good experience, the fewer changes that you have in your video feed the better for the online participants. 
  • If there are a lot of data calculations in an Excel file (Solver and Regression), there may be a delay when sharing and visibility can be fuzzy for your participants. 
  • Simple Excel computations (case analyses) will work fine

Screen-sharing PowerPoint

  • If you have concerns about your bandwidth, save your PowerPoint slides to a PDF file.
  • Keep in mind that the PPT slides in Presentation Mode will take up your entire screen and may cause issues seeing other files and the Zoom controls, chat window, etc. The slides in PDF format will result in a good instructor/student experience.
  • See link below for ways to share a ppt deck: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203395347-Screen-Sharing-a-PowerPoint-Presentation
  • We highly recommend that you have a PDF document of the PowerPoint deck as a back-up to be shared easily at low bandwidths.
