TIPS FOR ONLINE MEETINGS
- Get the date and time right!
- Note that when participants are from different time zones the meeting time is usually set in UTC (Universal Time Code). This is the only time definition that is impervious to daylight saving changes. By comparing your local time with the UTC you should be able to check your local time for the meeting. In practice, when notified of the meeting, you will be sent date and time. Be careful to check not only the time but also the date as this may differ from the UTC date due to your time zone difference.
Click here to see UTC time right now! - Use the best broadband access you have. Normally house based systems are better than mobile systems.
- As far as possible ensure that others who share your local internet connection (WIFI) will not be using it during the meeting.
- Do not have other software running on your computer (e.g. virus scans or backups) .. except your email utility.
- In advance of the meeting check that your sound equipment (microphone and headphones) is working. The ideal equipment is a microphone and headphone set as this allows you to have the microphone close to your voice and the headphone prevents feedback (whistling sound). Microphones built into computers are usually adequate but SEPARATE HEADPHONES ARE ESSENTIAL to prevent feedback that can disrupt the entire meeting. Even cheap headphones are adequate.
- Reduce all background noise and potential interruptions. THIS IS ESSENTIAL FOR A GOOD MEETING ENVIRONMENT. Computer microphones are often omnidirectional. That means they pick up everything around!!
- Movements in your headphone wires or rustling papers close to the microphone affect the whole meeting. You may not hear it but everyone else will!
- Make sure you have the right software for the meeting and any codes or passwords you may need to join.
- Log on 15 minutes before the start time if possible to sort out technical issues.
During the Meeting
- If you need to talk and are finding it difficult to get your turn send a chat message.
- If you have problems during the meeting use chat or email or phone.
- If your microphone or computer has a mute control be careful not to activate it accidentally.
- We use the web-cam feature sparingly as it consumes bandwidth.
