    • Setting up a space for the Zuis

Find a quiet space and spend some time beforehand to set it up for a virtual session. You may want to:

          • find a good study desk
          • use comfortable a chair
          • find a place preferably by the window or space with good lighting
          • arrange your screen and camera height (at eye level or slightly below)

Protocols for the Zuis during the Contact Workshop

    • Join the Zuis early—at least 5 minutes before time to test your connection and setup and to give yourself time to settle.

    • Ensure that you have changed/updated your name if needed on Zoom. We suggest that you use your first and last name when joining the Zuis.

    • If the space you are in permits and you have a good internet connection, please turn on your camera/video.
      Videos allow others to connect with you and help create a positive learning space. 

If you need to attend to something that requires urgent attention, you can turn the camera off at any time.

      • a picture from your region

      • your cluster group logo/image

      • any picture that holds value for you and you are comfortable sharing it with others

      • Alternatively, you can choose a clear background or turn on the blur effect on Zoom

    • Ensure that your mic is muted at all times unless you are talking or have been asked to engage in a kōrero.

Suggestion: Always mute your mic as soon as you enter a Zui. 
You can change your Zoom setting to set this as a default when entering a meeting.

    • Avoid talking over other people. If you have a question to ask or would like to make a comment either raise your hand or use the chat function.
