How to get ready for a Meet�

9 of 28

Prepare for your Virtual Meeting

Prepare your computer / Chromebook

  • Only have open the tabs you need / want to show / use
  • Open a test meet to check microphone and camera (the gear in the top right corner)

Prepare your meeting space

  • Find a quiet place in your home for the meeting
  • Look at your image - Is it too bright? Does your face seem to dark?
  • Try not to have light source behind your head
  • Is there too much going on in the background behind you?
  • Check with your participants (can you hear me ok, am I too loud, not loud enough - you may need to get closer to the microphone)
