Screen Sharing to Breakout Rooms in Zoom

In Zoom, you can now screen share (your screen or application windows) to breakout rooms from the main session. This can be helpful if you would like for students to have a reference document to use during group work. To begin, log in to Zoom using your UNT credentials and open your session. Once your session is open, follow these steps:

1. Select "Breakout Rooms"
