Zoom, zoom

Throughout the semester you will need to meet with you team to discuss the project and with advances in technology the options for you are endless in being able to communicate with each other remotely.

I am sure people will be using things such as Facebook and Google docs, another option which you may not be aware of is a program that the university hosts and is available to students called Zoom.  Essentially Zoom lets you have screen time conversations and also allows screen sharing of documents as well.  For those who would like more information check the Zoom link.

When you are communicating online here are a couple of things to consider

  • Get your technology sorted early
  • Think about your visual background
  • Remove distractions (turn off phones and e-mails, sign on the door)
  • Think about sound (acoustics of where you are, impact of wind on your microphone, microphones in the same chat near each other causing feedback)
