You can share a Google doc over Zoom.
To show you how i like to share documents in zoom using google docs and so i’m first of all i’m logged in to zoom. i’m going to host a meeting and ordinarily i would have somebody else on the other end of the call. and so what i do i there whatever do you notice that i did have a google doc open doc and then so i’m
Going to share-we’ll call this a road map. it doesn’t really matter what the document is about. so that’s automatically saving. so what i do in a zoom meeting is i will go back to zoom. let me get better soon and then i will share my screen. so this is for all participants and then i will go over and select this google
Doc here. share. and in fact i’ll click on the google doc and now both participants can see this screen because i’m sharing it on my screen, so outline of the project, purpose of the project, etc., whatever it is that i’m going to be sharing. now i’m doing this by sharing my screen in zoom. however what i
Will really want to do is give them access to this exact same document so i click on share and then i will type in the name of the other person who i’m sharing it with okay i’ll share it with a different person that’s my other email address so it’s hint and then what i do by sending that document and then that other
Person can actually go in and edit this same document as me at the same time now so keep in mind what’s happening here is that we are both looking at this one screen because i have shared that through zoom i’m gonna stop the share now but they both of us have access to read and write the document and you can
Do this with google docs you can do this with google sheets and what this does is it means that they both of you can keep editing the same document after the meeting so it’s a great way of keeping a record of what it is that you’ve done so just once again i open a google doc or it could be a google form or a google i
Could open a google sheet google spreadsheet but i’m opening just the document here under google docs and then i am going to into zoom and i share my screen so i opened that google doc on that page share my screen so i share this one and then we can both document is so this is a great way of keeping keeping
Notes from your meeting keeping a record of what it is that you whatever your project is and and then you can stop sharing the screen but but people will still they’ll both you’ll both still have access to to that same document so and as you can see the google doc is still there
