Practice: sharing your screen without oversharing
You are on a call and someone asks you to show them the problem. Everything you have open is about to be offered up, including things that are none of their business.
Free, and nothing here is real. No account, no download, and no message, payment, or account is ever actually touched.
Part of Spotting Sensitive Information Before You Share It. Free, plain-English practice for everyday work technology.
What you'll do
- Get to the moment on a call where you need to share your screen.
- Open the share picker and see everything currently open.
- Choose one window instead of the whole screen.
- Notice what would have been visible if you had shared everything.
- Learn the option of simply describing the problem instead.
What it teaches
Before you share a screen, show the least that does the job: close what they do not need, share one window rather than everything, or just describe it in words.
