WATCH: A helpful guide on how to use Zoom as restrictions introduced again

Brought to you in association with Laois and Offaly Education and Training Board (LOETB)

With new restrictions being introduced to help limit the spread of Coronavirus, having a handle on the various technologies is becoming vital once again.

If you missed out on the Zoom revolution the first time around – or had no need to be using it – you will probably need a crash course again.

And if you do, then this very helpful video from Suzanne Hoey, a digital and social media tutor with the LOETB, explains it very well in a simple step-by step guide.

“Many of you may not have heard of Zoom prior to the Covid-19 outbreak but I’m sure it’s something you’ve heard many times since,” she says in her introduction.

“People ask is it really only a business tool?

“ Well in my house, my eldest daughter is using it to dial into college lectures and my five-year-old is using it for her dance class tutorial.

“Given circumstance and you can use for free it has got a following.”

In a short but very practical four-minute video, she goes through everything you need to know, from registering, arranging a call, recording and much more.
