The ICPE 2022 Technical Support Team are hosting an orientation session at the end of the first day of the conference. Join the Zoom and meet our brilliant technical team members to get support with any technical questions you have, or we welcome you to just pop in to say hello!
Online Platforms
There are four platforms we will be using throughout the conference to make it an interactive experience with easy sharing of information.
Virtual Poster Platform
On this platform, you can view the posters anytime throughout the conference and ask the presenters questions asynchronously by clicking “Join the Discussion“. You will also have the opportunity to talk to presenters synchronously during the poster sessions.
Also on this platform, you will see a box for each stream of contributed talks (grouped by day and time of day). Each stream box contains the list of talk titles, authors, and a link to the abstracts. We have also included abstracts and information about the invited talks, including the plenaries, keynotes, panel discussions and the ICPE Medal Award presentation.
- Click the “Chat with Presenter” button to go to the Zoom room, which will open 5 minutes before the scheduled time.
- Click the “Join the Discussion” button to open another window where you can leave a comment or question for the presenter/s. You can use this function to ask presenters questions asynchronously, throughout the conference. See further instructions here.
This is where recordings of Zoom sessions will be uploaded and available for viewing at the end of each day. Please email admin@icpe2022physicseducation.com if you experience any issues or have any questions about the virtual poster platform.
Zoom
We will be using Zoom for all presentations. The Zoom links to each of the sessions are on the Program sent to Participants on Friday 2nd December, and each day of the conference. You can also join the Zoom sessions via the virtual poster platform, by clicking “Chat with Presenter”.
The Opening Ceremony, Medal Award, Plenaries and Panels will be hosted on Zoom Webinars. You can ask questions in Q&A during these sessions. Contributed Talk and Poster Sessions will be held in Zoom Meetings.
Naming protocol
In the emails you receive from admin@icpe2022physicseducation.com containing the Conference Program with links, you will also be given your individual Zoom ‘name’, which is a 3-digit number followed by your name. You can change your Zoom name prior to joining a Zoom session, or during a Zoom session, before the presentations commence. Below is a quick snapshot of how to change your name while in a Zoom meeting. For further instructions, including how to change your Display Name before joining a Zoom, see guide to change your Zoom name.
Technical Support
If you are unable to log into a Zoom session, or are having other technical issues, please email admin@icpe2022physicseducation.com.
If you are logged into a Zoom Meeting session and require technical support, please send a direct message using the chat function, to the ICPE TECH person. See guide to use chat in Zoom and Ask for Help.
During Webinars (Opening Ceremony, Plenaries, Panel Discussions and the Closing Ceremony), you can ask the ICPE TECH team members a question using the Zoom ‘Q&A’ feature.
Asking Questions via Chat
Throughout the Zoom sessions, we encourage all participants to ask the presenters questions via the Zoom Q&A function (in Webinars) and Chat function (in Zoom rooms). During the Contributed Talk streams, your questions will be addressed at the end of the session, after all talks have been presented, during the 15 to 20 minutes question and answer time (Q&A).
We ask that all participants Mute their microphone, unless it is their time to present or ask a question during the Q&A time at the end. We also ask that participants wait until the Q&A time, after all the talks, to use the “Raise Hand” function.
Along with asking questions using the chat function, during the Q&A time, you can select the “Raise Hand” option. When the Chair asks you to ask your question, please unmute your microphone and ask your question. See guides for Zoom chat, raise hand feature, and how to mute/unmute microphone.
Zoom rooms will remain open after each session so please feel free to continue your discussions with colleagues for as long as you would like.
