Allow Participants to screenshare in Zoom (Host only)

If you are on a Mac and have the Catalina OS or newer and will need to screenshare in Zoom or BigBlueButton, please follow the steps in this video to enable screensharing.

This article only applies to Zoom accounts that are managed by Online Learning.
If your class meets virtually–but your meeting links are not sent by VCL@ciis.edu–then the settings for your Zoom meetings may be different.

For questions about Zoom meetings that aren’t managed by Online Learning, please contact the Zoom account owner (possibly your program) or CIIS IT support@uswired.com.

This guide describes using the Zoom desktop client on a computer (Macintosh or Windows).

For details about other devices, as well as the latest information, please see the Zoom Help Center.
 
What can I do in advance?
It is recommended to download and install Zoom on your device if you haven’t already. If using a web browser, please use Chrome only. Verify that your browser is up-to-date. For more information, see the Canvas Community article here.
 
Please check your Chrome settings to allow webcam and microphone access. Make sure that blindsidenetworks and Zoom don’t appear in the “Blocked” category for Mic. Do the same for Webcam.

Additionally, if you are on a Mac and have the Catalina OS or newer, please follow the steps in this video to enable screensharing.
 
If you encounter audio issues, check that Bluetooth headphones are not inadvertently connected (e.g. AirPods). For a demonstration of testing your audio, watch this Zoom support video (end at 1:09).
 
If you have a presentation file to share you may wish to save it as a PDF (File > Save as Adobe PDF in Windows or File > Save As > PDF > Save on Mac). Email it to the class in advance in case they need to open it on their end. (If you don’t have everyone’s email address handy, you can use the Canvas Inbox feature and attach it to a message to your entire class.) Presentations that are saved as a PDF won’t include dynamic transitions, video, etc. (only text, hyperlinks, and static images such as photos).
 
If you will be showing a YouTube video, PDF, or other media, you can have it open and ready before you present.

Webinar troubleshooting

If you are on a Mac and have the Catalina OS or newer and will need to screenshare in Zoom or BigBlueButton, please follow the steps in this video to enable screensharing.

Need help?
For help during a virtualized class meeting, please visit www.VCLhub.com for immediate chat support.
For help outside of class meeting hours, please contact onlinelearningsupport@ciis.edu.
For issues with CIIS email or updating settings, please contact IT: support@uswired.com.

  1. If your Internet connection is slow or lagging:
    1. Close other data-intensive apps, e.g. Facebook and streaming (including by others sharing your wireless network, if possible).
    2. Work close to your wireless router, or physically plug the ethernet cable into your computer if it has an ethernet port.
    3. Consider temporarily turning off your video and only maintaining the audio connection. Sometimes, running the webcam will use up your bandwidth in a way that can make communication challenging. Turning off the video should improve communication quality and stability. 
    4. If you have unlimited data on your cell phone plan, use your cell phone as a hotspot:

       On iPhone and iPad:

      1. Go to Settings > Personal Hotspotand toggle it on (if you don’t see Personal Hotspot in Settings, tap Cellular > Personal Hotspot). Make note of the Wi-Fi password.
      2. Open the Wi-Fi menu on the device you need to connect to the internet. Look for your iOS device (ex: Ben’s iPhone), tap it, and enter the password that appears on your iPhone’s Personal Hotspot screen. Re-enter the Big Blue Button/Zoom session using the link you received via email.

      On Android:

      1. This will depend on which device you are using. Navigate to Settings and search for tether. Look for hotspot, wifi hotspot, tethering, Turn it on. Make note of any password.
      2. Open the Wi-Fi menu on the device you need to connect to the internet. Look for your Android device (e.g. G7 ThinQ_6693), tap it, and enter the password that appeared on your Android. Re-enter the Big Blue Button/Zoom session using the link you received via email.
  2. If your computer processor is slow (the computer is older or storage space is full), close any data-intensive apps that you are not using.
  3. If you get feedback or an echo when you are talking, turn down your speakers. The output is too loud. Use the same method you would use to turn down a song or Youtube video that is playing too loudly.
    1. For computers, at the top of your keyboard, press:3 bullhorn icons. The middle one with 1 sound wave is highlighted. The first one is a crossed-out bullhorn, and the third is a bullhorn with 3 sound waves.
    2. If you have external speakers, turn down the volume knob.
    3. For tablets and cell phone, use the physical volume buttons on the side of your device to lower the output volume.
      • Don’t turn the sound off—only lower it. You still want to be able to hear other people speaking.
      • Some devices are very sensitive and will still generate some echo.
      • Try wearing earbuds or a headset if you have them.
      • If you encounter audio issues, check that Bluetooth headphones are not inadvertently connected (e.g. AirPods). For a demonstration of testing your audio, watch this Zoom support video (end at 1:09).
    4. If your microphone is not working, chat the Online Learning team at VCLhub.com for immediate support during class meetings.

What to expect when you’re expecting

(to virtualize a course)

If you are on a Mac and have the Catalina OS or newer and will need to screenshare in Zoom or BigBlueButton, please follow the steps in this video to enable screensharing.

Each course will be assigned a Liaison. There are a handful of Liaisons for all of CIIS. This person can assist faculty by:
– basic troubleshooting of connection issues, connecting headphones, sharing screen, etc.
–       uploading/updating Zoom polls (if faculty provided it in advance to onlinelearningsupport@ciis.edu)
–       creating any breakout rooms as needed (if faculty indicated the need in advance to onlinelearningsupport@ciis.edu).

Courses will not be recorded. The classes will not be available for viewing afterward.

In case you get disconnected, rejoin using the same method you had initially used. Make sure to follow all instructions for joining the audio properly. If you still have issues, please use www.VCLhub.com for immediate chat support with a Virtual Course Liaison.
 
Chats. Try to check the chat space or volunteer to monitor the chats and tell the instructor if something needs their attention, e.g. a relevant question about the topic. Secondarily, the chat can be used to troubleshoot with participants who have audio/video trouble. The Virtual Course Liaison will leave the best way to contact them during your class time in the chat box, so please check it before class begins.

Need help?
– For help during a virtualized class meeting, please chat us at www.VCLhub.com.
– For help outside of class meeting hours, please contact onlinelearningsupport@ciis.edu.
– For issues with CIIS email or updating settings, please contact IT: support@uswired.com.

What can I do in advance? 

  1. Find a quiet place free from distraction.

  2. Do not forward your CIIS email account to another address (e.g. Gmail). You might not receive the link emails. Microsoft might mark them as spam or not deliver them to your forwarded address.

    1. To stop mail forwarding:
      Log in to Office.com using your CIIS email credentials. Click on the gear icon in the upper right and go to the bottom of the drop-down window (scroll down if necessary) and select Mail > Forwarding > Stop Forwarding > Save.
    2. To check your CIIS email account directly:
      Log in to Office.com using your CIIS email credentials and select the Outlook icon:Envelope with square O beside it.
    3. Please use Chrome or Firefox only. If possible, close other data-heavy tabs/apps before class, e.g. Facebook and streaming (including by others sharing your wireless network). Work close to your router or if possible, use a wired connection.
  3. Check your permissions before class:
    1. If using Chrome, please check your Chrome settings to allow webcam and microphone access. Make sure that Zoom doesn’t appear in the “Blocked” category for Mic. Do the same for Webcam.
    2. Additionally, if you are on a Mac and have the Catalina OS or newer, please follow the steps in this video to allow screensharing.
    3. If you have trouble with either of the above, before your class, please contact IT (support@uswired.com).
  4. If you’ll be connecting from home, you may wish to perform a speed test. For effective video, you must have at least 0.5 Mbits/second upstream and 1 Mbits/second downstream. If your internet does not meet these requirements, the class might not run smoothly and you could be dropped from the meeting.
  5. For audio we strongly recommend using a headset. Wearing earbuds or headphones will reduce the amount of background noise that your computer will pick up. Any headset with a built-in microphone should be fine. If you have no headset, please turn down your speakers to reduce echo.

    If you encounter audio issues, check that Bluetooth headphones are not inadvertently connected (e.g. AirPods). For a demonstration of testing your audio, watch this Zoom support video (end at 1:09).

Students

  1. Enter using a recognizable name, e.g. the one used by the registrar’s office or Canvas (not fuzzycatlover@gmail.com).
  2. Mute yourself upon entry if you’re not already muted. Be ready to unmute yourself and turn on webcam if possible.
  3. Make sure you are set up to receive certain Canvas notifications immediately. (Log in to Canvas > click Account > click Notifications > click the first column for the row called Do the same for Added to Conversation and Conversation Message. Your changes will auto-save.)

Instructors

If you need help breaking your class into small groups, please tell onlinelearningsupport@ciis.edu the time you will need Breakout rooms, and if room assignments can be random (recommended), manual, or whether students can choose. Your Liaison can assist with creating Breakout rooms during your class meeting.

    1. Random (recommended)
    2. Manual: You can provide a list of names and rooms to your Liaison in advance so they can manually set up the rooms during your actual session (this will take a few moments).
    3. Students can also choose their own rooms.

Troubleshooting tips during the session

  • If your Internet connection is slow or lagging, consider temporarily turning off your video and only maintaining the audio connection. Sometimes, running the webcam will use up your bandwidth in a way that can make communication challenging. Turning off the video should improve communication quality and stability. 
  • If you are experiencing issues with an echo, try wearing earbuds or a headset if you have them. If not, reduce the volume on your speakers. 
  • Make sure any Bluetooth headphones aren’t connected inadvertently.
  • Mute your microphone if you’re not speaking, and be ready to unmute it quickly.
  • Check the “chat” space for student questions and contributions. Some students may not have working microphones and, therefore, may be unable to contribute by speaking. The chat space is also great for troubleshooting audio glitches.

Captions and transcripts in Zoom

This article only applies to Zoom accounts that are managed by Online Learning.
If your class meets virtually–but your meeting links are not sent by VCL@ciis.edu–then the settings for your Zoom meetings may be different.
For questions about Zoom meetings that aren’t managed by Online Learning, please contact the Zoom account owner (possibly your program) or CIIS IT support@uswired.com.

This guide describes the auto-transcription service using the Zoom desktop client.

What is the difference between subtitles, closed captions, and transcripts in Zoom?

Subtitles (recommended): Convey dialogue as written text. Zoom can provide automatically-transcribed subtitles.
Closed captions: Convey both speech and non-speech elements. Unlike subtitles, they can include descriptions such as [dog barking]. In Zoom, closed captions require a typist who is assigned by the host to provide manual captioning or a third-party closed captioning service.
Transcripts: Convey speech. Zoom can provide automatically-transcribed transcripts. Searchable text with timestamps can appear as the side panel of the meeting. 

Once the Host selects Enable Auto-Transcription, everyone will have several options. Each Participant can make changes to their own display (the Host cannot change the display globally):
A menu showing 3 options: #1 Show subtitle. #2 View full transcript. #3 Subtitle settings.
Show Subtitle [1] displays subtitles on the screen.
View Full Transcript [2] displays subtitles in real time with the speaker’s name and a time-stamp within a panel to the right. (If you had the Participants and Chat panels open, the Transcript will replace them).
Subtitle Settings [3] will open a window where you can adjust the font size of both the subtitles and the chat window.
