Quick Reference Guide for Moderators
Moderators can create Breakout Rooms in Elluminate Live!. A Breakout Room has the same features as the main room and can be used to facilitate small group activities or private meetings. Each Breakout Room has its own audio, whiteboard, application sharing, video, etc. Communication or activity in breakout rooms is not captured in the recording. Moderators can create any number of breakout rooms at any time during a session. Moderators can then move participants and content into and between breakout rooms and the main room.
Creating Breakout Rooms
On-the-Fly Breakout Rooms:
You can select one or more participants and send them to an on-the-fly breakout room which is created automatically.
NOTE: When the last participant is moved out of the breakout room, it automatically closes and any content is lost. To retain the whiteboard content, you must either save the whiteboard screens to a file or copy the screens into the main room prior to moving the last participant out of the breakout room.
Formal Breakout Rooms:
You can create formal breakout rooms where you can load or even pre-load content onto the whiteboard screens.
NOTE: When the last participant is moved out of the room, the room and the whiteboard content remain. You can save or copy the content before you close the room.
