USING ZOOM: In order to collaborate with other students and professors, log into your Syracuse University Zoom account; you may start a regular audio or video conference meeting there. Once logged in, there are two ways to use Conceptboard in tandem with Zoom. You can either share your Conceptboard page, through the "Share Your Screen" feature offered in Zoom, or ask all of your guests to connect to both Zoom and your Conceptboard page. The latter offers more flexibility for the presenter, who can either control what board guests are viewing through the “Moderation” tool, or provide guests the opportunity to independently explore the board’s content.
