ATTENDING ZOOM MEETINGS: BASIC CONTROLS

     Please be aware that, depending on the available bandwidth of your personal internet connection, during a Zoom session you may see a message pop up that says your internet connection is unstable.  Sometimes your screen may freeze for a second or two.  Also, audio may either slow down or cut out briefly from time to time.

Here are a couple of the attendee controls to get you started.  For more detailed information, click the link below.

Mute icon in Zoom.

Frequently, attendees will all be muted when joining a meeting.  In order to be able to speak, you must click the Mute control.  Also, if you and your friend are talking just to each other while attending a Zoom meeting, use the Mute control.

Chat icon in Zoom.

The Chat control toggles a sidebar that allows you to chat with everyone in the meeting or the person of your choice.
