There are two main audio modes in Engageli: Room Mode and Table Mode. Room Mode This is the default when you enter your Engageli classroom. This means that as the instructor you will hear the audio feeds from all learners, and they will hear each other, regardless of where they are seated. When to use: class discussions, lectures, announcements, etc. Table Mode When you enable Table Mode, learners will hear only their tablemates and you will only hear learners who raise their hands. When to use: small group discussions, projects, and other table activities You can easily toggle between the two modes.

Click GALLERIES to view the video feeds of all learners. If you hover and click the Actions menu in an individual learner’s video feed, you’ll see options for:

• Request to unmute
• Request to turn cam on
• Add to panel
• Request raise hand
• Send a message
• Send a reaction to learner
• Observe learner’s table
• Block learner from class

Note that Engageli never records table conversations for learner privacy. Learn how to optimize your recording for asynchronous learning.

Click OBSERVE to check in on learners during group activities or discussions without interrupting the flow of conversation.

You can join tables to interact with each table individually. When you join a table, the TABLE tab appears on the right side of your screen next to the CHAT and will automatically show the video feeds of all learners seated at that table. You can leave a table and go back to the podium by clicking QUIT on the table in the TABLES view or by clicking the back arrow for the table you joined at the top of the screen.

Instructor's Seating: Assigns learners to the table groups that you initially set up if/when a roster was created in the Portal. These serve as default table assignments. 3. Random Arrangement Tablesize: Randomly redistribute participants across tables in group sizes (1-10 participants) of your choosing. 4. Split Students by Poll Results: Split learners by different poll responses into table sizes of your choosing.
