Registering for the Zoom Meeting
To join the meeting, first you need to register. You can register anytime before or during the meeting. We strongly encourage you to register before the meeting - it takes only a few minutes.

During the Zoom Meeting
As you view the Zoom meeting, you will be able to ask questions and make comments. When making comments please be sure that your microphone is unmuted so that others can hear you. Also, please be considerate and mute when you are not talking, especially if you are in a noisy environment. You may also be asked to participate in polls during the meeting.
Polls
When the host activates a poll question, an image similar to the following example will appear. Answer the poll question and then click on Submit to send in your answer.
Once attendees have submitted their responses, a screen displaying the responses may appear similar to the below image.
If the poll window has closed while the poll is still open and receiving responses, click the “Poll” icon at the bottom of the screen to reopen the poll window.
Leaving the Meeting
Click “Leave Meeting” (in red on the right of the menu bar) to leave the meeting at any time. If you do not see the menu bar, move your mouse or touch your screen if attending on a smartphone to display the menu.
