Select "Mute all users except presenters" upon entering so people entering on the microphone are muted automatically |
3 |
Make sure to watch the virtual classroom tutorial before instructing a class: https://vimeo.com/354686721 |
4 |
If someone unmutes themselves in class click on their name and choose "Mute User" |
5 |
If someone keeps coming onto the microphone (or video) choose "Lock Viewers" and select Microphone, Video, Chat, etc. |
6 |
If you have issues uploading your slides save it as a PDF and re-upload it |
7 |
If that doesn't work you can export as "Images" and upload those as slides |
8 |
If you haven't used the virtual classroom in a while, go in ahead of time and practice for 5-10 minutes to familiarize yourself again |
9 |
Start the recording at the beginning of the session. Stop the recording at the end of the session. |
10 |
Interact as much as you can with participants using chat, the whiteboard, polls, etc.. Don't worry if you have a group that is reticent to interact though, it can happen! Just move on. |
11 |
For instructors calling into the conference line, the *(asterisk) button on your phone is to mute/unmute yourself |
12 |
Always try and enter your session at least 10 minutes beforehand. It's better to be prepared than for something to happen and need to rush! |
13 |
If students want to participate on the mic, you can have them raise their hand or write in the chatbox, so you can then unmute them. |
14 |
Do not touch the whiteboard if you want your webcam to be recorded as a full-screen video. |
15 |
For optimal audio quality, use a headset, especially important if you are not close to your computer microphone |
16 |
Launch a practice session beforehand (option on the left side panel of your account) or even create a test session. You can do this by creating a class and setting it to private. That way you can see its recording afterward. A practice session does not record. |
