We will be using Zoom for Lab Instruction as well as TA Office Hours.

• Go to BYU's Zoom Portal to login to your profile. (BYU IS Info has very straightforward instructions on how to download Zoom)

• Zoom has comprehensive training videos that walk you through much of Zoom's basic functionality

• The TA Schedule has individual links for joining each of the TAs Zoom Meetings. Use these links to get help from a TA during their posted hours.

We suggest that you familiarize yourself with Zoom before the first Zoom lab you attend. You can do this by doing the following:

1. Start a meeting:¹⁾ Go in and start a fake meeting of your own so you can practice using Zoom's tools
2. Record: Click the button at the bottom of the window to turn on recording
3. Test Functionality: Experiment with your “Test Speaker and Microphone” functionality to make sure your set up is functioning
4. Share Screen: Practice sharing your screen - this is vital, as it will be how TAs can best help you with your labs, simulations, and code.
5. End Meeting / View Recording: Go back and watch the video to see what was actually transmitted to the meeting participants.
