We will be using a video conferencing software called Zoom to hold the course meetings remotely. You can create an account for free through https://jhubluejays.zoom.us.
You must use your JHU account when you join Zoom meetings for this course.
The Zoom link for online meetings will be posted on the course discussion forum.
Here are some tips for participating in class meetings:
- Download the Zoom desktop client and join the meeting from your computer (it works better compared to tablet/phone)
- Set up an intentional space where the class is going to happen; ideally, a quiet and private location.
- Consider using a headset to reduce sound interference and unwanted echoing.
- Make sure you are muted when not talking.
- Feel free to ask questions using chat or wait until I ask the audience to speak if you want to ask a question live.
- Consider turning your video on, particularly when in breakout rooms; it helps to humanize the virtual experience!
