Learn how to use the various Adobe Connect pods to collaborate better in your virtual meetings and remote sessions.
In a virtual session, the participants collaborate and share content. Adobe Connect enables collaboration in a myriad of ways, for example taking notes, chatting, question-answer sessions, polling, sharing content, and so on.
You can share many supported file types, documents, and presentations. You can also share your desktop screen, whiteboards, weblinks, and files. For more information, see Share content in a meeting.
Take notes in a meeting
Hosts and presenters use the Notes pod to take meeting notes that all attendees can see. The meeting notes remain visible in the pod throughout the meeting or until a presenter edits them or displays different notes. A host can hide the Notes pod, or switch to a different room layout that does not include the Notes pod.
When you type a message in the Notes pod in a particular layout, the same text appears in other layouts that contain the same pod. With the Add New Notes option, you can create a unique instance of a Notes pod that appears only in one layout.
Hosts and presenters can use the Notes pod in several ways:
Create a single, persistent note that is visible to attendees during the entire meeting.
Create multiple Notes pods to display different notes.
Share the contents of a Notes pod through email or export to a text file.
Adobe Connect administrators can change pod, sharing, and other settings to adhere to standards for governance. These settings affect the layout of meeting rooms and what you can do in meeting rooms. For more information, see Working with compliance and control settings.

Chat in meetings
Use the Chat pod to communicate with other attendees while a meeting is in progress.

For example, when you first enter a meeting room, you can introduce yourself by sending a chat message to everyone in the room.
As a presenter, you can use multiple Chat pods simultaneously. Chat pods can display content either to everyone or only to presenters (in the Host and Presenter Area).
Chat pod content persists in a meeting room until deleted. If you want to preserve the content for future use, send the content through email.

Questions and answers in meetings
You can use a Q&A pod to answer questions posed by attendees. When a presenter answers a question, the question and answer appear as pairs in the Q&A pod.
Hosts can give participants enhanced rights, letting them answer questions as well. See Assign enhanced participant rights.
Here are some examples in which the Q&A pod is helpful:
During a large meeting, questions are added to a queue on the Q&A pod while the speaker presents. After completing the presentation, the speaker reviews the messages, applies a filter, and begins answering the questions.
A meeting moderator answers logistical questions but forwards technical inquiries to an engineer, who is presenting.
A meeting moderator returns certain replies to the sender only. Replies that are relevant to all attendees are sent to everyone in the meeting.

By default, Hosts and Presenters see the Q&A pod with extra controls, but you can quickly see questions with answers as participants do.

Poll attendees
Hosts and presenters can use the Poll pod to create questions, or polls, for participants and to view the results. Only hosts and presenters control poll management and how polls appear to meeting participants. Hosts can also cast votes.
Polls are useful during a meeting if you want instant feedback on what is being presented. Polls can also be used at the end of a meeting to find out if participants felt the meeting, content, and presenters were high quality.
Adobe Connect administrators can change pod, sharing, and other settings to adhere to standards for governance. These settings affect the layout of meeting rooms and what you can do in meeting rooms. For more information, see Working with compliance and control settings.
