Tutor Whiteboard

**Student whiteboard is not the same as tutor whiteboard; certain buttons/features not
located in the same exact location)

> WB Tabs Depending on the student traffic, you will hear a cuckoo sound and see another
WB tab on the upper right corner showing another student. It is widely accepted industry
standard to greet the extra student quickly. To use our system, your speaker volume must be up
on your computer at all times. You can also create multiple boards for the same student (click
on New Board as shown above), as well as stretch the board horizontally and vertically (just
type something at the bottom of the whiteboard until the whiteboard expands).

you notice that audio is activated with a student connected with you, please simply click on the
microphone and speaker icons next to the student's name in the Participants box left of the chat
box. If anyone asks, let him/her know that audio is not used with Brainfuse tutors but can be
used in a Meet session scheduled by the student. JobNow users do not have Meet but
HelpNow users do. For additional information, please direct the client to the email address

Web Links
How to send Web Links - When you send a web link through the chat box and the student clicks
on the link directly, this may cause a momentary disconnection if the student is using Internet
Explorer and have a pop-up blocker. Students can also copy/paste the link instead of clicking
the link.
