titleVirtual backgrounds

Some co-ordinated branded backgrounds specific to this event will be made available. We encourage you to select one to use as a background during the session you are chairing to give a consistent branded theme to the event.



Open the question moderation app (Q2P)
  • Access Slido using the links above, preferably using a different device to the one you are using for Zoom.
  • In the Q2P, you will see the questions drop into the Inbox.
  • You can change the order the questions appear in the inbox from oldest to newest or vice versa.
  • You can also opt to see the questions in the order of most “liked”.
    • Once you login, you will be brought to the moderator view of Slido.
    • Select ‘Audience Q&A’ in the top tab menu and you will see questions appear on the right hand side.
    • When  you hover over a question, you will see three button options appear
      • Star question (can be used as a means of queuing questions to be asked)
      • Highlight question (brings the question to the top of the list and highlights it for the audience. This can highlight to the audience which question is being asked at the time of discussion)
      • Mark question answered (this will remove it from the list, clearing it for the following speaker)
    • Please remember to clear the questions ahead of each presentation to avoid confusion for the following Q&A
  • In the Queued page you can re-order the questions in advance of the Q&A session by selecting the cross and dragging and dropping the questions into the desired order.
  • Use the Queued page view during the Q&A session to see only the filtered questions.
  • Start at the top of the list and once you have answered a question, mark it as “Answered” so it is removed from the list and the next question moved to the top.
  • You can also “Reject” and “Edit” questions from this page view.
  • If there is not enough time to read all the questions that are submitted, ask the attendees to post any unanswered questions on the relevant speaker's presentation page on the microsite.
  • If there are any questions left in the Inbox or Queued pages after a speaker has finished, we recommend you “Reject” them to clear the Inbox and Queued pages ready for the next session.
  • To review the answered questions, select the “Answered” page.
  • If you mark a question as answered by mistake, you can simply move it back to the Inbox or Queued page.
  • To view any questions marked as rejected, go to the “Rejected” page

    • Queue the questions that you will read out to the speaker during the Q&A. Queuing the questions not only gives a tidy list, but it pushes them to the technician who will display the questions as an overlay on the livestream while you read them to the speaker. To the right is an image of how the livestream looks during a Q&A; it shows chair and speaker with a “queued” question appearing in the frame.
    • Reject any questions/comments that are not relevant.
    • Edit the question, before queuing it, to correct spelling/grammar or to re-phrase the question.

    • You can only see the queued question by selecting the “Queued” page.

    titleFAQs

    What are the presentation formats?

    • Speakers have three presentation options.
    1. They can present their talk live by sharing their screen.
    2. They can present live but have the AV technician share their slides. They will need to indicate when to move on to the next slide.
    3. They can pre-record their talk but will still need to join Zoom to respond to questions at the end.

    What if a presenter looks like they will take longer than the allotted time for their presentation?

    • Politely interrupt the speaker and tell them how long they have left.
    • Skip Q&A if need be and ask the virtual audience to post their questions on the speaker's page on the microsite.

    What if there are no questions for the speaker?

    • Feel free to ask any questions of your own. Or move on to the next speaker if that fits with the schedule.

    What if the presenter is a no-show?

    • Continue to the next speaker if they are ready. If the missing presenter arrives late, move them to the last time slot in the session.

    Will the sessions be recorded?

    • Yes and they will be published for on-demand viewing.

    What to do if a speaker runs into a technical issue or loses their internet connection?

    • Technical issues can be addressed and resolved by the AV technician. If the speaker loses internet connection, go to a break until it is time for the next speaker (to adhere to the schedule).
