We are located in the PCL STEM Study Center on the 2nd floor of PCL – through the main entry doors and all the way to the back in Learning Spaces 1 & 2.
Zoom etiquette suggestions:
- Be sure to mute your mic whenever you are not speaking.
- Consider muting your video if you are completing a non-Zoom related task.
- Close unneeded applications on your computer to keep the video optimally functioning.
- You might want to use a headset with an external mic for best hearing and speaking capabilities.
- When you are speaking, let others know that you are finished.
- If you want to speak, use the “raise hand” feature that is available at the bottom center of your screen.
- You can ask questions using the “Chat” feature on the bottom and center of your screen.
- Be mindful of your background lighting.
- Be sure that there is nothing visually distracting.
- Remember to sign out or “leave the meeting” when the session is finished.
