Get Ready for 'Zoom' and the DSIL Virtual Classroom Sessions
Welcome to the quick webinar guide for Virtual Classroom participants. This year's Virtual Classroom is hosted on Zoom!
We highly recommend that you create an account before August 15 to facilitate your participation in the Virtual Classroom. In addition to creating an account, consider downloading the desktop or mobile (Windows, iOS, or Android) versions of the meeting client depending on your preferred connection method.
Alternatively, you can join as a 'guest' with a meeting link and password; this is available to all registered participants at pax.dsilglobal.com. However, you will still be prompted to initiate the Zoom software, so this may take an additional 10 minutes depending on your connection speed.
Join DSIL Virtual Classroom Sessions in 3 Steps!
Step 1: Go to the session flyer and click on the 'Join the Live Session' button
Step 2: Enter the password to join the meeting
Step 3: Be sure your microphone is working and muted
Sometimes it may take a few minutes for the meeting to get set up on your computer. Please log-in to sessions 10 minutes before they start to ensure your audio and video are ready.
Helpful Hints!
- In the main meeting screen area, you can communicate with fellow participants and lecturers in the chat box at the bottom of the screen.
- Lecturers can use the whiteboard, share files, and speak to you live via video feed.
- When the meeting has ended you can leave the meeting by clicking the ‘Leave Meeting’ button at the bottom center of the screen.
- Always double check that your microphone is on MUTE while listening to the speaker.
