WebEx
Breakout Rooms for Students
A breakout session is a private content sharing session that includes two or more participants. Breakout
sessions allow participants to brainstorm and collaborate in small, private groups away from the main
training session.
The WebEx ball will be next to the
presenter’s name. The presenter is able to
control the room.
If you are the presenter, you can re-assign
the presenter roll by clicking on a name and
then clicking Make Presenter.

You can ask your instructor for help by

As a presenter, you can share your desktop,
a file, computer application, whiteboard,
web content, web browser or session
window with the other participants in your
session.
When you share a file, such as a Word,
PowerPoint or Excel document, the file will
open in a new tab and you’ll have a tool
panel which can be used to annotate the
document.
As a presenter, you can end the breakout
session by clicking End Breakout Session.

session by clicking Leave Breakout Session.
