We briefly look at keyboard shortcuts in this session. However, there is greater focus on the many other settings that you can change in the online Zoom browser. Some of the default settings you should consider are:

  • Enabling a waiting room
  • Using a password
  • Don’t allow guests to join before the host
  • Record meetings automatically (or not)
  • Mute participants upon entry
  • Allow chats (including private chats, depending on the type of events you host)
  • Don’t play sound when guests join or leave a meeting
  • Allow co-host permissions
  • Enable polls
  • Set specific rules relating to screen sharing depending on the type of events you host
