Webex Dos & Don'ts

Please note: we are discouraging the use of "Webex Trainings" (the more advanced "Webex Meetings") due to Chromebooks not being supported.

Mute your microphone when not in use.

If the host does not auto mute you, make sure to mute yourself upon entering a session. The echo can cause reverberation for every user.
You can mute your microphone by selecting the microphone bubble at the bottom of your Webex screen (move your mouse cursor over the presenter for the bubbles to appear).

Mute your video in large sessions, but not the classroom.

In large sessions (30+ attendees) we recommend muting your video feed to save the session's bandwidth.
In a classroom setting we recommend not muting your video so your students can see you and interact with you. While it might be uncomfortable at first it's a great way for your students to stay connected with you during this time.

Meeting Controls

Your meeting controls will hide automatically when you're not using them.

Move your cursor to have them appear at the bottom of your screen.

Microphone

Turns red when you mute your audio. Click again to unmute.

Video

Indicates your video is on. Video is on by default unless you have chosen to turn it off when joining the meeting. You will see when your video is off.
