15 Minutes Before You Class

  1. Find a quiet space with strong WiFi that is free of distractions. You can test your internet connection speed by visiting Zoom's suggested third party bandwidth tester, Speedtest.

  2. Open your Zoom app and start the recurring meeting with your class title. (Reference image above)

  3. Test your headphones/speakers, microphone, and camera to make sure other participants can hear and see you (and vice versa).

  4. To test your microphone, click "Test Computer Mic & Speakers" in the pop-up window that appears when first opening a test meeting or beginning your scheduled meeting. More information on audio testing can be found here.

  5. To test your camera, just look at the Zoom window to see that you are clearly visible, non-pixelated, and can move and speak without noticeable delays. Click here for more video testing tips.

  6. You may need to give Zoom permission to access your camera and microphone beforehand.

  7. Close any windows or programs open on your device that are unrelated to your meeting. This focuses your device's power to provide the best Zoom meeting experience possible.
