Enable Screen Sharing Permission in Lessonspace on Chrome
Chrome is the browser we recommend using for optimal lessons using Lessonspace. Please ensure you are always using the latest version of Chrome to ensure the smooth running of your online lessons.
How to enable screen sharing on Chrome in six steps
Ensure you have given permission to your browsers to allow for audio and video. When you join a Space, you will see a pop-up that asks you to allow access. Click “Allow”.
If you mistakenly block the camera and microphone, you will see a little red cross through your camera in the URL bar at the top. Click on that. Now you’ll be asked to allow Lessonspace access to your camera and microphone here. Select “Always allow” and reload your page. Once reloaded, you’ll rejoin the Space, and everything should work.
Click on the "share screen" icon on the right-hand side of the comms dock. The icon looks like this:
A menu will pop up asking if you would like to share your Screen, an Application Window, or a Chrome/Firefox tab; select your choice
(Note: Apple has some additional settings to configure following a security update, so Mac users may need to view the guides for screen sharing on macOS Catalina (10.15) and later.) Please refer to Advanced Training and select Mac Specific Troubleshooting.
Make sure that you select at least one option - you'll notice that the Share button will turn blue once you've made your selection.
Click the blue Share button.
We recommend sharing a window or tab only. Sharing your entire screen may result in an Infinity mirror effect.
