How can I submit questions during an event?

In most instances we’ll invite people to share questions using the ‘Q&A’ feature. Simply click the ‘Q&A’ icon at the bottom of your screen, type your question and press ‘Submit’. On occasion we’ll invite attendees to elaborate and talk through their question / comment. For this to happen the host / co-host will unmute you to allow you to talk. You can also use the ‘Chat’ feature, but for some this will only be used for comments or technical queries to allow us to better manage questions using the ‘Q&A’ feature.

If an instructor shares a PowerPoint slide show (which would be full screen), is the zoom toolbar still accessible? Or would the instructor have to exit out of the slideshow to access the toolbar?

The toolbar is always accessible but if you don’t set it to always show control bar, it will be hidden and you may need to locate again (usually by hovering your cursor at the bottom of the screen).

How do I know if a meeting is being recorded?

A red “recording” button will appear at the top left of the screen. For copyright reasons please do not record the seminar or discussion using your own devices.

How do I use the chat?

When in the Zoom meeting, if you can’t see the chat window, when hovering over the main video, you should see a button at the bottom of the page that says ‘Chat’. Click this and the chat window will appear. From within this newly opened window, at the bottom it will say ‘Type message here…’. Just above this field, it will say ‘To:’, and then say ‘Everybody’. This means that everybody in the chat window will see your message. If it does not say everybody, you can click on it and then select ‘Everybody’ from the list, or you can select [...]

Do I need a microphone and / or camera?

Having a microphone and a camera can help make the session more interactive and inviting to see everyone’s faces and hear each other’s voices. However, they are not absolutely necessary to participate in the events. Where the video interaction may be limited (with events of 60+ attendees) please note that the text chat and Q&A option will still be available for you to submit questions and comments.
