Presentation Live Screen
Updated this week

The Presentation Live screen is where StreamAlive’s audience interactions (polls, word clouds, maps, spinner wheels, etc.) are shown to your audience.

Simply share this screen in your meeting or livestream, and your audience will be able to see the interactions come alive as they type in the chat.

This screen serves as the bridge between your presentation and your audience, turning static sessions into dynamic conversations.

Why Do You Need It?

  • Visualizing participation: Audience responses are displayed in beautiful visuals.

  • Boosting interaction: It encourages real-time engagement, transforming passive viewers into active participants.

  • Enhancing communication: Live visuals make it easier to interpret audience responses at a glance, whether you're teaching, presenting, or hosting a live stream.

How Do You Use It?

  1. Set Up Interactions: Before your session, prepare your StreamAlive presentation with polls, word clouds, etc. using the [presentation builder].

    You don’t need to set up your interactions in advance, you can also use the [Easy Interaction Links] to launch a poll in seconds.

  2. Share Your Screen: Ensure your audience can see the Presentation Live screen by sharing it via your meeting platform (e.g., [Zoom], [Teams], or [other streaming platforms]). This step is crucial—your audience won’t see the interactive visuals unless you share your screen.

  3. Engage Live: Once your screen is shared, StreamAlive will dynamically update the Presentation Live screen as your audience responds, creating an interactive and immersive experience.

NOTE:

Going back to an interaction

If you revisit an interaction that you have already moved on from, StreamAlive will simply recreate the final interaction with all the answers that were left on screen before the interaction ended. For Transient Thoughts and Quick Questions, it will list the comments.

Remember to share your screen with your audience so they can see how their comments are being picked up.
