During Conference
It is strongly recommended that you turn on your video in Zoom during the session.
Please unmute your microphone while answering questions.
Please introduce the session, yourself, and the first talk, just like an in-person conference session. Please remind the attendees that, they can ask questions during each talk by typing into the Zoom chat window at any time, and these questions will be answered at the end of the talk. If you have any questions to the volunteers, please use the Zoom chat window.
Please monitor Zoom chat for any questions. If chat window is not visible on Zoom, click Chat (or More->Chat)
Try to encourage attendees to ask questions by unmuting their microphone and speak directly on Zoom. Authors should be answering the questions over audio, rather than using the chat window.
If there are no questions from the audience, you can ask a few questions about the talk yourself.
Towards the end of the Q&A session, you can introduce the next talk.
At the end of the session, conclude the session. Please fill out the Session Report and email it to the TPC Chair.
Remove “(Author)” from your name to avoid any confusions in the other sessions that you will be attending
