- Make sure you have childcare set up in advance of the E-Learning Training Course.
- Prepare materials in advance.
If you will be sharing content during the class, make sure you have the files and/or links ready to go before the class begins. Please bring a notebook and something to write with. - Arrange to be in a distraction free environment during class.
Please find a quiet room where you are not going to be interrupted. - Please turn off all electronics other than your Zoom device
(E.g. silence your phone, turn off any music or televisions, etc.) - Avoid multi-tasking.
If you are present, and totally present, you will be able to digest, utilize and retain the content of the class. This means, for example, we would ask you to refrain from replying to emails or text messages from others during class. It’s okay to take a break from cooking or cleaning or any other household tasks! - Remember to eat beforehand.
We’ve all seen it—and possibly done it ourselves—but it’s definitely best to avoid eating during your Zoom class. We encourage you to eat before or after class. - Please don’t Zoom and drive.
It should go without saying that it is never a good idea to participate in a Zoom class while driving (and illegal in most countries) - We ask that you mute yourself when not speaking.
It can be distracting for other classmates to hear background noise (e.g. television, pet noises, family members, etc.). You’ll never go wrong by keeping yourself on mute until it’s your turn to speak. - Please join the class 10 minutes early.
Not only do we ask that you arrive on time, but it’s best to log in 10 minutes early to ensure you don’t have any connectivity issues that can make you late to the class or possibly miss important introductions. Pro Zoom Tip: Set an alarm on your phone to help you remember to log in early to your Zoom class. - Good lighting and camera angles make a difference!
Our classes are interactive and the teachers and other participants want to connect with each other, so it is a very important part of class dynamics that all our faces are visible. This one is probably one of the easiest yet most ignored aspects of Zoom etiquette, but good lighting on your face is vital to you being seen clearly by other participants.Tip:
Adjust your camera to be at around eye level and take note of the angle of your laptop screen if using the built-in camera.
