Instructions to presenters and session chairs

F2F presenters should bring their presentations in a PPT or PDF format on a USB drive. This is especially important for Mac users.
We ask chairs to operate the room computer, as well as monitor time to allocate evenly between two presenters.
All presentations should be shared through a Zoom session unique for each room, regardless of whether they are f2f or online. The Zoom session will be always projected on the screen
Everyone in the audience should use hand-held microphones. Put them back in the charger when not in use.
There are two cameras in each room; one to show the front of the room, and the other to show the audience. To switch between them, session Chairs go to Zoom Video Control (lower left corner)
No recording is allowed per GDPR. If you need to record audio for disability access purposes, an explicit consent of the audience is required.
For troubleshooting, first restart the Zoom session, then contact QMUC Support personnel by calling Kim (73 80 52 69) or Eirik (73 80 52 25).
In the unlikely event of Zoom bombing, remove the offending participant without the right to return.
