Displaying Word Documents in Collaborate Ultra

May 1, 2020 by Ashaun Adler Leave a Comment

You can share PowerPoint and image files in Collaborate Ultra. If you would like to show the people in your room a Word document, we recommend doing a screen share. To do this:

  1. Open the Word document that you would like to share. Do not minimize the Word document window.
  2. Go to your course and open Collaborate Ultra.
  3. In your Collaborate Ultra room, select the Share Content button.
  4. Select Share Application/Screen.
  5. Select Entire Screen or Application Window (see below).
  6. Click Share.


If you minimize the Word window, you may not have the option to share it in Collaborate. If Word still does not appear as an option, you could share your entire screen and display the Word document on your computer as well.

Outside of work, you can probably find me working on a craft project or learning something new. I enjoy trying new recipes, taking long walks, and playing board games.
