Things to keep in mind for the best experience

Below are some things that will make your experience of using BigBlueButton:

• make sure to use headphones in order to avoid echo;
• when you are joining a call with low speed internet we advice you to either use a camera with the 'low res' setting', or not using it at all.
• please mute when you are not speaking.
