In case you are NEW to Zoom here are some Etiquette tips:
Yes, we will actually see you in the class.
Seek as quiet a space as possible with no or minimal background noise.
Arrive early to allow time to troubleshoot and resolve any potential issues with equipment.
Ensure that your camera is on. For CE classes we must see you there the whole time except for breaks.
If you are connecting from a laptop, try to plug in to wall power, because battery use can adversely affect video quality.
Close all blinds and doors to cut down on potential glare. Interior lighting should not be too dark or too bright. Normally, the settings used in a traditional work environment are adequate.
Adjust the camera angle or seating position to ensure you are on camera.
When not speaking, make sure your audio is muted. This will prevent inadvertent noises, such as coughs, rattling papers, or chair squeaks, from interrupting others.
Speak clearly and in a normal voice. There is no need to shout.
As with any meeting, limit side conversations and multitasking.
When possible, avoid interrupting others as they are speaking. Many video conferencing systems have a voice-activated switching feature to automatically move the camera to the active speaker. Interrupting another speaker may confuse the voice activation.
