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
here? So I've just gone and created a Google 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.,
project timeline. Whatever is prerequisites. 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
type together at the same time whatever this 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 I'll stop the share and then I stop the meeting
and as you can see the Google Doc is still there
