## Use the chat!
- In the Zoom UI, click on "Chat" (at the bottom of the screen, in the middle)
- This will bring up the chat panel
- Say hi in the group chat!
- If you'd like, you can open the chat to its own separate window:
- click on the little `v` on the left of "Zoom Group Chat"
- select "Pop Out"
- We will be monitoring the Zoom chat during the whole training
- Don't hesitate to use it to ask questions, or get help, or share feedback
---
## Use non-verbal communication cues
- ... wait, what?!?
--
- In the Zoom UI, click on "Participants" (at the bottom of the screen, in the middle)
- This will bring up the list of participants
- You can pop it out if you like (just like the chat window)
- At the bottom of the list of participants, there are feedback buttons:
raise hand, yes, no, go slower, go faster
- If you click on "more" (on the right of these feedback buttons), you can also:
thumbs down, thumbs up, applause, need a break, away
- Click on "thumbs up" to let us know that everything is working fine!

## Use your webcam (if you'd like!)
- If you would like to turn on your webcam, feel free to do so
- You don't have to, but your teacher will appreciate it :)
(it's easier to teach and get feedback from human faces!)
- You are welcome to smile / frown / raise your hand ... through your webcam as well!
- Great metaphor, courtesy of

*“It's just like being in a classroom.
People with their webcam on are in the front row;
people with their webcam off are in the back row.”*

## During the session
- We will often ask "yes/no" questions; use the corresponding buttons
- If you have a question, you can ask in the chat, or use "raise hand"
