ZOOM: Instruction Manual for Program Participants

Welcome! This support document provides step-by-step


instructions for participants on how to use ZOOM.

Joining a ZOOM Meeting & Download

1. Go to https://zoom.us/join
2. In the top right-hand corner, click “JOIN A
MEETING”
3. The webpage will prompt you for your Meeting
ID or Personal Link Name; type in the 9-11 digit
number that your instructor provided you with,
and click “Join”.

4. You will see this screen – the application may


automatically download to your desktop or
device.

5. Depending on what browser you are using, you


may have to install the program on your
computer; find where this installation package
went on your computer; It should be
downloaded as “Zoom.pkg” or something
similar.
6. Begin the download process (it will take a
moment).
7. Once downloaded successfully, the application
will pop-up on your screen;
a. Click the orange “New Meeting” button if
you wish to start a meeting with your own
personal Meeting ID (you will be the host).
b. Click the blue “Join” button if you are
attending a meeting hosted by someone
else (If you are a student, this will be the
option you will choose the most).

8. If you need to change the language of your


application, find the application on your
desktop, open it, then right-click the
application; there should be an option to
change the language in this drop-down menu.

9. If you clicked the blue “Join” button, type in


your instructor’s Meeting ID again.
10. Provide a screen name for yourself (Please use
your first and last name so your instructor
knows who you are).
11. If you do not want to join with audio or video,
check those options before joining (you can
add your video and audio again after you’ve
joined the meeting).
12. Once you have been added to the meeting, you will be left in the “waiting room”.
13. You will see either one of two messages:

a) The first one you will see if you log in to your


Host’s meeting with the Meeting ID before the
Host has started;

b) the second being the one you will see if you log
in after the Host has arrived, but before they
have provided you access.

14. After being granted entry, make sure you


click the green “Join with Computer Audio”
to join the meeting with audio automatically
(you can mute this once you’re on the
meeting).
Navigating ZOOM

1. After joining a meeting, if you selected “Join with Computer Audio”, your speakers and microphone
should now be working.
2. You can mute or unmute your microphone or start your video connection using the icons in the
bottom left (highlighted in RED in the bottom left-hand corner).
3. To see a list of other people in your program, you can click the Participants icon, or engage in a text
chat by clicking CHAT.
4. You can leave the meeting by clicking the red “Leave Meeting” link near the chat bar.

Your video will


appear here

5. If you go to the participants icon, you can


“raise your hand,” and the Host will see this
indicated on their screen, and will answer
your question.
6. Share anything (Word Documents,
PowerPoints, YouTube videos, etc.) by clicking
the SHARE button at the bottom of the screen,
and choosing an already opened
document/internet browser on your desktop.
7. You can choose to share your entire desktop
screen, or individually opened
applications/documents.
8. When sharing things with audio, be sure to
check the checkbox for “Share Computer
Sound” in the bottom left of the window that
opens when you click SHARE (highlighted in
RED).

9. Once selected, the document that is being


shared will be highlighted in green on your
desktop; your settings for the shared
document are at the top.
10. Your audience will be able to see your curser,
and everything you do, within the highlighted
green section (you can only work on the
selected document – you cannot drag other
documents into the selected document area).
11. If you wish to share a different document, exit,
then click SHARE, and select a new document.
