Zoom recently introduced a new feature called "All Screens Mode," designed to enhance proctoring capabilities for meeting hosts.
How it works
When enabled, All Screens Mode allows hosts to view the desktops of all attendees simultaneously, making it easier to monitor participants during online exams or other activities requiring supervision. The host can enable an option that allows participants to view all shared desktops as well.
However, it's important to note that this feature is not available in breakout rooms.
Instructions on how to use All Screens Mode are available online.
