Control your Session

Our Connect as a Teacher feature has evolved into Control your Session. Giving Google users more control in navigating a screen sharing session directly from their device.

Moderate who can share

Control your Session now works with Moderator mode. This ensures that only invited participants can share their screens. We’ve excluded the educator from moderation, so you no longer need to invite yourself from the display to share.

Joining via a browser is the easiest for both user and IT team as there is no installation required. Simply go to www.displaynote.com/join on your laptop or Chromebook.

It gives a user the ability to present a single tab or window rather than the whole screen. So, teachers can present content for students while ensuring no other information is present on the display.
