Tips for participation in Zoom sessions
- Update your Zoom client to the latest version. The zoom app takes 5 minutes to install, so please set it up before the sessions.
- Please join the sessions before they start (we have 60 minutes for that), so we can assist you if you experience any issue.
- Please use your real name or nickname, so we can know who you are and let you in. You can change your name after you have joined.
- Please use headphones with microphone rather blue-tooth headphones where possible.
- Please mute your microphone when entering a session and unmute only when you want to speak.
- If you need a break during the sessions, take it.
How to use zoom

To test Speaker and Microphone click on Audio Settings in the same menu and click on the link Test Speaker and Microphone.
In the window that opens you can Test the Speaker and Microphone and select the volume.

If your video is not working when you click Start Video, please check your settings.

If you would like to examine settings in more detail, click on the last option Video Settings... and the following window will open.
Here you can define how your video should be presented and we recommend you select the option Hide Non-video Participants so that you will be able to see only the videos of participants who have their cameras enabled.
Chat
Zoom enables you to participate in public chat and also send private messages to specific participants. To send a private message select the participant in the dropdown field which is by default set to Everyone (for public chat).
