How can you activate the weatherman mode in Microsoft Teams?
Meetingparticipants are usually more focused and have a better experience when they see a presenter during a presentation. An interactive presenter helps to engage the target audience more when delivering sessions, lessons, seminars or demos. Just like during a class, it is more pleasant for the students to be able to see the board and the lecturer as in the physical world, next to or in front of the board.
In this blog I will explain how to activate this presenter mode for a Teams meeting.
