​Software you might need on your laptop:

> See David to have the full version of GoToMeeting installed. If you currently have the program installed you may find that you don't have all the components included You might like to add these suggestions when emailing a scheduled online meeting:
 * 1) **GoToMeeting**
 * 1) **Screen Hunter** - free program to help you capture parts of page which converts to an image (that's how I created the images below)
 * 2) **GoToMeeting - tips**

// Also, the **CHAT** feature is a get way to ‘raise your hand’ which will indicate to the host to stop talking so that you can ask your questions, or ask to repeat a particular skill, etc.  //
 * Etiquettes of using online for PD:**  //It is vital that throughout the PD you click on the microphone next to your name to activate the **MUTE** command. While the host can Mute everyone it is best if each attendee manually activates this feature. By manually selecting this option you can then choose to ‘un-mute’ yourself when the timing is appropriate and talk whereas if the host selects Mute, everyone you can’t be heard until the mic is turned off. Leaving the mic un-muted, creates a lot of background noise making it difficult to hear the person speaking.//


 * 4. SMART Notebook**
