Very helpful! Thank you. I noticed that my monitor only shows my Zoom unless I drag the other applications over to it. Is there a way to just have them opened and showing on the monitor so I can readily share with my students?
For younger students it's good to monitor all of them while screen sharing. Can you have the extended monitor show gallery view while you screen share on the other monitor, or would it be better to log into the zoom in a 2nd machine to use for that purpose?
You can select "Gallery" view on the second screen to see all the students - you can make the other windows (chat, participants) smaller if you want to expand the view. I have a small laptop (13 inch) so you may have more room for that view...
Oh - my iPad is my virtual aquarium here - keeps me calm when I work - When I'm "writing" in a ZOOM session - I usually just open up the paint program and type or write examples on the desktop - and that way ZOOM captures it all - the students (or participants) like that -
Sassy, if you are speaking of the Zoom software, they'll see whichever screen/part of the screen you allow them to see. The way I'd do it, is to let the participants' webcams appear in one monitor, while in the other you have your files and notes set in an organized way. Then, when you need it, you just share it. It saves you time, really. There are even people who go for 3 monitors, but some people think that's overkill. That way you can have monitor 1 for webcams, monitor 2 for students' material, and monitor 3 for your own personal notes/guidance powerpoint presentation.
I feel like you had extra tools that allowed you to drag and what not. I am not paying for anything for the dual screens. I am still trying to have a dual screen between my ipad and laptop so i can see what I am teaching and see my students on two different screens.
he didn’t pay anything. using a laptop and an iPad is a completely different setup. This is just outputting the laptops screen to a bigger monitor, not using 2 different device. You need to find a separate tutorial to do that.
the best idea I could think of would be to get Zoom on the iPad and the laptop, sign in on a separate account on the iPad, then login to the meeting on both devices from separate accounts. There is no way to drag though.
Thank you so much! Just did my first Zoom today with two monitors. This is a lifeline!
This is going to be so helpful for teaching PE by zoom. I will actually be able to see the kids better on a larger screen. Thanks for the help!
Perfect! I was looking for a video like this. Thank you!
Very helpful! Thank you. You are a great teacher, I am sure your classes are very engaging and thorough. Thanks again!
How to setup the dual monitor setup. Will you please do a video on that as well
Appreciate this! Thank you!
Thanks a bunch!
Excellent set-up. I’ll get a second screen 👍🏻
Thanks proferror :)

Please share how to do setting, make video on it

Hi Doc, How did you connect the two monitors!
Do you use your ipad to write as well?

Hello. Can I ask when you have two monitors what the students can see on there own screen?
Sassy, if you are speaking of the Zoom software, they'll see whichever screen/part of the screen you allow them to see.

@@bdou.8425 thank you. I'm smiling right now reading your comment. 😘
Is the laptop a Mac?
I don’t think so because the monitor (2nd) is running Windows 10. This should work on Mac as well though.
Yes - its a PC - but this will work with a mac as well - just go to the display settings on the mac
Just looking at a this set-up gives me a headache. I rather teach with my iPhone sitting on a park bench.
