If you hover, it says “Exit Full Screen.” This does not bring you back to the Slides editing screen though, it simply puts the presentation back in your browser window so you still have access to all of your tabs and other browser resources. Now that you are full screen, you will see your slide options at the bottom (including the awesome new audience tools that puts a laser pointer on your slides.) You’ll see the icon on that bar that looks like four arrows pointing inward. When ready to present, click on the present in full screen view. Doing that is pretty easy, but it is a bit hidden. The solution is to run the presentation at the full size of the browser window, but not full screen.
I know it is just a few clicks, but it is an annoying few clicks and a good chance to lose an audience.
This is a critical step and can be easily overlooked, but will give us a new option. Click on the three-dot icon and then choose Open in new window. Change the sharing setting from Private to On Anyone with the link or On Public on the web. Then, to go back to my presentation, I need to go back to present mode. Click on the three-dot icon, click Share, and click Advanced in the window that appears. The major problem I experience when using Slides while doing PD (also for classroom use) is that to go to my demo, I need to exit full screen. I can see some uses for presentation software though, and if you are reading my blog you are probably using Google Slides for that. If prompted, accept the terms of service. On the tablet, open the Drive app, found in the Apps drawer. Its named Google Drive, and you may find a shortcut in the notification area (in Windows) or atop the screen (in OS X). Youll find it in your account folder, along with other famous folders. I believe that we should demo during PD and not simply present materials. On a computer, open the Google Drive folder. I am still not fully onboard with using presentation software during PD.
