Webex Training - Help for Participants

Webex Training is a part of the Webex-Family, which is dedicated to virtual seminars/lectures and online trainings. The system supports both Video-, as well as pure audio conferences, as well as text chats, screen sharing and the sharing of schooling materials, live surveys and much more.

A comprehensive Step-by-Step Guide will appear by clicking the following headers.

Training-Participants do not require a Webex-Account and can join directly via the link, an invitation or the session ID. They merely need to provide a name, a mail adress (private or HSRW) as well as the sessions password..

</html>

You will usually find a link in the accompanying Moodle course.

1) Click the link

The following window will open: Now you can take part in the session by putting in your Name, E-Mail address and session password.

If the session has not been started yet the window will look as follows: (Session status will say „Not started“)

If that's the case you have to wait until the host starts the session. Refreshing the page will show you if the session has been started in the meantime.

Please click the button „Join now“ and not „Join per browser“! You will be asked to install the Webex App. The app is much more reliable and offers more features than joining per browser!


2) Joining the audio conference

To join the audio conference, you have to click „Call per computer“. It is recommended to check your microphone and speaker settings before joining.

As participant it's possible to share your screen with others, if the host gives you the „Moderatorball“.


In the following picture (Point 1) you can see that now you're not a participant but a panelist. Furthermore you will see the Webex logo next to you rname. That's the so called „Moderatorball“. You now have the ability to share your screen or certain applications with other participants. (Point 2).

By default, there will be a menu bar at the top of the screen.

The most important functions:

  • Stop sharing: Stops the screenshare
  • Pause: Freezes the screen for all viewers, until this button is pressed again
  • Audio: Activates or deactivates sharing sound (i.e. sounds from your browser or open videos. Does not affect your microphone)
  • Mute myself: Deactivates your microphone
