Presenting and following a presenter

Ideal for meetings and presentations, the present feature allows directors to keep up with book navigation in real time during book presentations. Anyone who has chosen to follow the book will see their pages automatically turn to match the page view of the presenter. This topic explains how to present book content and follow a presenter.

Present book content

  1. To become the presenter, select the Present icon .

    A Presenting message appears to confirm that you are in presenting mode.

  2. Navigate book content in real-time. Followers see their own instance of the page you are viewing, so your private notes and annotations are only visible to you.

    • If you select a link to go to a page in the current book you are presenting, another book, or the Resource Center, followers are taken to that page.

    • If you select a link to an external website, a dialog box appears and your followers have the option to go to that site.

  3. To end the presentation, select the Stop presenting icon . You can also navigate to your bookshelf to automatically end the presentation.

Follow a presenter

  1. To follow a presenter, select the Follow icon .

    A message appears with the name of the presenter that you're following.

    If no one is presenting when you select the Follow icon, you'll automatically start following once the presentation begins.

  2. As you follow the presentation on your screen, you can make notes and annotations, but you'll automatically stop following. You'll also stop following if you begin navigating the book independently. Select the Follow icon to resume following the presenter.

  3. To stop following the presenter, select the Stop following icon .

  4. When the presentation ends, you'll receive a message that you are no longer following the presenter.
