WyoCast provides the option for live and on-demand viewers to submit questions through its Q&A Forum feature. For live presentations, this allows for near real-time questions from your remote audience. For on-demand presentations, this allows viewers to ask follow-up questions that can be automatically forwarded to an instructor or presenters UWYO email account. Viewers can ask a question by selecting the 'ask a question' bubble in the lower right area of their player widow.
UWYO users can request the Q&A Forum to be enabled for a specific presentation through the WyoCast Request form found here:
https://uwyo.teamdynamix.com/TDClient/Requests/ServiceDet?ID=9473.
A user with a UWYO account is required to receive the questions. When making the request you will need to
request the service, and provide one (or more) user names to be given the moderator role.
There are 2 concurrent methods to receive questions:
