Notes

Personal Checkins

• Testing Big Blue Button
  • change default presentation
    • can’t upload large files
  • can we turn off the “you are now muted” voice each time we mute and unmute
    • pc: kinda like that personally (incl #a11y)
  • where do notes live?
  • shared notes OR chat, not both
  • mic isolation?
    • seems decent! but still can pick up env. sounds (e.g. keyboards)
  • presentation uploading
    • “File is too large. Please split into multiple files.” > 1mb
  • annotation feature is smooth (“like ice”)
  • closed captioning is manual, can be user-toggled for display, one moderator at a time (can take over) and can be exported as text file
  • echo test happens every breakout, very annoying
