How to manage your slides?

In facilitator control mode sessions, the owner of the session and the added facilitators have access to control buttons that allows them to manage the activity for all the activities created. 

The management of activities via control buttons is only possible in the Facilitator control mode. In Participant control mode, the activities are accessible as soon as they are added to the session.    

Start an activity  

Once your activity is done, click on the green button Start at the top right of the slide to open it to your participants. This makes the activity accessible and your participants can start answering it.

Stop an activity 

To close your activity, you just need to click on the red button Stop at the top right of your activity. 

This way, your participants won’t be able to send more contributions or answers to your activity. The answers are sent and the results remain available for consultations once the activity is closed. 

Continue an activity 

After a sequence of comments or explanations on the activity, do you want to open it again? Click on the grey Continue button on the top right of your slide

The activity menu and the other possible actions

The slides imported from a document (Powerpoint or PDF, for example) cannot be edited on Beekast. 

1. Reset: resets your activity, deleting all participation data.
2. Edit: do modifications to your already created activity
   
3. Duplicate: create an identical copy of your activity.
   
4. Delete the activity 

The edition is limited to evaluation activities once the answers are saved. This avoids biasing the results of your activity.

The Screenshot of the slide feature is exclusive to the Whiteboard activity

All removals are definitive, whether it is a slide, or an activity.
