Key Dates & Checklist
Please make sure you create a zoom account at least one day prior to Conference and log in with your account (not guest) to the Zoom app (not Internet Explorer).
Record & upload your presentation by August 3rd at our Google Drive Directory.
Rename the files as “TrackName_lead author last name” (e.g., EasternTrackDay1_SharedMobility_Irannezhad)
Please ensure you upload two files: your PowerPoint slides (as .pptx) + presentation recording (as .pptxs or .webm).
Your presentation should be 10 to 15 minutes.
On Aug 4 or 5, please participate in your session & in many others! (Your recording is simply a backup, in case you have connection issues.) We also have 5 minutes for Q&A with authors, for a total of 20-min per paper. Note: Flash session presenters will have only 15 minutes total.
You can use any available tool for screen & video recorder. We recommend PowerPoint’s simple Slideshow/Record tool (which will save a pptxs file for you to upload). Upload the file to the BTR Google Drive Directory.
A Few Tips:
- If possible, use a microphone rather than your computer’s in-built speaker to record your audio.
- Ensure all notifications are turned off.
- Remove background noise, turn off fans, devices & close the door to avoid distraction.
- Please make sure your video does not block the texts on your slides.
Windows users can use PowerPoint Slideshow/Record tool as described here. Mac users who cannot record the camera by the PowerPoint, can use Panapto instead.
