Here is what to expect during a Zoom class

Once class begins, make sure that your webcam is on to engage with the instructor and your classmates

Polling questions may be taken during class

Microphones will be muted when you join a class

When your instructor asks a question, use the nonverbal icons to answer (include a screen shot of the nonverbal icons in the wiki and encourage use)

Video breakout rooms where you will be placed with a subset of your classmates may be assigned randomly or pre-defined by instructor based on group assignments

When screensharing occurs, you may encounter a delay in the video

Chat during class should be used for lecture topics or requesting help

TA support will help students that post questions in the Chat window and answer content questions after class, help monitor nonverbal feedback (ie. raise hands) and keep the class muted to minimize distractions
