How to set up Zoom in our classroom

 

Our main problems occurred with acoustic feedback, usually caused by cell phones.
We obtained our best results with the following setup:

  • N255 audio system ON
  • Handheld mic ON (use Headset mic if Handheld needed elsewhere)
  • Cart Computer ON and logged into Zoom
  • Cart Projector ON
  • Cart audio amp and speakers ON
  • Zoom Camera (cell phone), mounted on tripod, Muted in Zoom, with audio output minimized

  • Arrive at the classroom by 9am to do the above setup, as problems can arise such as
    Microsoft deciding to upgrade the Windows operating system. It would be good to do a
    test with one or more remote Zoom participants to ensure that all can see and hear.
    It may be advisable to ask those remote members to sign on early for this test, so that
    the testing does not interfere with the class functions.
