How to create a session

To create a session

1- First step

Once you have logged into your account, you will find the Create a session option at the top of the page, in the My sessions area. You can also start creating your slides by clicking directly on one of the suggested activities.

2- Second step
Once a session has been created, default settings are applied. You can, of course, change them once you are in the session:
- The default scrolling mode is set up, scrolling by the Facilitator or synchronous mode. 
- The session will automatically be saved with the name “New session + creation date”
- The identification/connexion mode, which is by avatar

To change the title, click on the pencil to the right of the predefined title, press “Enter”, or click outside the box. You will see a green pop-up on the right of the page to notify you of the change.

Creating new sessions is not available on mobile. To create a new session, please use the web version of Beekast on a computer.

And there you go ! Your new session is created, now you only need to customize and set it!
