  3. Using Lync • Become familiar with the Lync interface • Creating an invitation to a meeting (via Outlook) • Muting microphone • Sharing video (only when necessary) • Sharing • Desktop • Whiteboard • Polls

  4. Before You Present • Do a test connection before your presentation • Have a colleague connect with you and practice your presentation, including: • showing any whiteboards, • presentations, • polls, or • sharing your desktop

  5. As a Presenter • Create your link to your Link presentation in Outlook calendar (can do this with the Outlook Web App 2013 or desktop client) • Send the link to participants • If working with someone else as co-presenters, test your audio and create polls before others connect Join Lync Meetinghttps://meet.lync.com/coemailmurraystate-coemail/poakley/FTDQN7YZ

  6. Using Polls • If you want to create polls before you start, connect early • Create and name them for easy access • Will disappear if you leave the connection • Know how to share them and show results

  7. As a Participant • To access training, click on the link you received • Once you are admitted, be sure your microphone is muted in Lync • Do not start your video unless you are asked to do so by the presenter • Ask questions in the chat window

  8. Using the Microphone • If you are asked by the presenter to speak, unmute your microphone, but remember to mute it when you are finished • Be sure you are in a quiet space if you are going to be talking • Background noises are distracting to other participants

  9. Using Lync in the Classroom • Foreign language classes • Comparing geographical regions of Kentucky • City life vs. country life (i.e., City Mouse & Country Mouse) • Comparing weather through the year • Authoring books together (My Trip to ____________) • Comparing Civil War battles in different areas
