Slides + screensharing

Share your slides full screen

  • Open the PowerPoint file you want to present and choose slide show presentation mode.

  • Join the Zoom meeting.

  • Click Share Screen in the meeting controls (bottom of Zoom screen).

  • Select your PowerPoint Slide Show, then click Share computer sound on (bottom left) if there is audio / video in your presentation.

  • You should see your lead slide has taken over the Zoom window. At the top of the screen is a green indicator you are sharing and a red stop sharing button.

Tip

Sometimes people with Windows PCs might lose Zoom from their screen when they put a PowerPoint into present mode. If they press Ctrl + tab they will be able to get Zoom up again to share the screen.

When a panelist who is speaking hands over to the next speaker, make sure they don't put their video on mute until the next speaker has started talking.

Use the right PowerPoint template!

We have an ICAEW PowerPoint template for slides for Zoom.

Download the PowerPoint template from Sharepoint (External presenters and panelists will need to request the file be sent to them).
