ZOOM GUIDELINES
FOR ROOTED ONLINE
Think of a Zoom Meeting as a face-to-face meeting and conduct yourself as you would if you were all present in the same room. Below are some useful tips to observe to help ensure the meeting goes smoothly for all involved:
Join early – up to 5 minutes before the meeting start time
If you haven’t used Zoom before click on the link to download Zoom prior to the day of the meeting and familiarize yourself with any features you may need to use on the day – mute/unmute microphone, stop/start video, screenshare etc.
Have your video on unless you are experiencing connection issues
Find a quiet space without interruptions / background noise
Use headphones if you have them.
Have a plain background – avoid backlight from bright windows
Have good lighting on your face so you can be seen clearly
Adjust your camera to be at around eye level if possible – especially take note of the angle of your laptop screen if using the built-in camera
Mute your microphone when not talking
Try to avoid talking over / at the same time as other participants
Be aware you are on camera and try to avoid doing other tasks, checking emails, looking at your phone etc.
Avoid: Poor lighting, backlit by window, busy background
Aim for: Adequate lighting, good angle, plain background
