Program

General Information

  • Please turn on your video, especially when talking, unless your internet connection is too weak.
  • Only the person who is talking should have the microphone on.
  • To ask questions or to make comments, you can raise your hand and unmute your microphone or you can write in the chat.
  • There will be one moderator in each room who can help with technical questions and who will keep an eye on the time.
  • Participants can move freely between main room and breakout rooms.
  • During the break, we will meet via wonder.me, where you can form small groups. Once you have joined the wonder.me room, you can add your picture bubble to another picture bubble, which will start a circle and open the conversation. You can move between circles. The wonder.me room is open during the entire symposium.
