Online Sessions

Instructions for online panel participants

The chair of the panel is also co-hosting the Zoom session. Each presenter will have 15 min for their presentation and share their own screen to show PowerPoints or other material. Presenters must ensure that their presentations work without issues: particularly if there’s audio or video this should be tested well ahead of time. The chair starts the meeting, and afterward presenters join it through the regular link (links provided below). The chair can decide whether there will be a joint Q&A at the end or whether there is 5-10 minutes for discussion after each presentation. Each online panel will be joined by a student assistant.
