Projection Display Options

Extend A Screen 

The projection display options in Windows 10 allow for several projection configurations. The two most common are Duplicate and Extend.  Access the projection options by using the F8 function key. (Dell Laptops)

Duplicate - an exact duplicate of the device screen projected on the big screen or whiteboard

Extend - add the space of the projection screen as part of the device thus giving a much larger work area and the ability to have multiple tasks going at the same time with students viewing one item while other items are only visible on the device display

Split Screen (Display from two sources at the same time)

Two different images from two sources can be shown at the same time by using the remote control for the projector to select more than one display option and 'split' the screen.  Follow this link to learn more.
