Preparation:

• Locate yourself in a quiet, distraction-free, and comfortable space.

• Have your video and audio device connected to your device and tested before you begin. If you are connecting to an audio-only meeting, you only need a microphone.

• Close all tabs on your browser that you do not need.

​

In-Meeting etiquette:

• Stay on “mute” when you’re not talking to prevent disruptions to other speakers from your background noise. (Note: Remember to mute in the Zoom application and not from your headset)

• To temporarily unmute - hold the spacebar on your keyboard. To unmute fully, click the unmute button on Zoom.

• Be aware that you are always on camera; anything you would not do in public would apply here.

• “Raise your hand” to let the host know you would like to speak or ask a question by clicking the “Reactions” button.

• Zoom Chat - you can use Zoom Chat during the meeting to send questions or statements to everyone or a single person without having to talk.

• We encourage attendees to keep their camera on for the duration of the meeting to feel more connected, however, you may turn your camera off and rename yourself in the meeting if you would prefer to remain anonymous, or if you are unable to attend from a distraction-free area.
