To participate in a videoconference, a group must register and be scheduled. Registration is now closed. To request an exception, contact the coordinator directly.

 

Notes and Instructions:

  • Videoconferences will use Vidyo. For instructions on how to use Vidyo, please go to the Masterclass Library Vidyo page.
  • Videoconference connections will be made using the link from the World Wide Data Day Indico page.
  • Students do not need to report results in the videoconference. Rather, they should prepare short comments on how the measurement went, any surpises they found, or questions they have about the measurement. This short (~2 min) report is followed by moderators comments on the results so far and a Q&A. Please see the Videoconference Plan below.
  • Prior to the videoconference, the teacher should help the students prepare questions and comments indicated in item 3 above. The teacher or a designee  should also connect 5 min early to the videoconference to deal with any potential problems with the connection.

 

 

Vidyo Tests

Each participating group must have a Vidyo test to ensure a good connection on World Wide Data Day. The quality of the connection is critical to the success of the videoconference, which is the forum in which students connect with physicists and encounter the combined results. 

Vidyo Test Procedure:

  1. Sign up for one of the time slots using the W2D2 Vidyo Test Google form. (Note: the test takes only 10-15 min; you can join Vidyo anytime during the time slot.)
  2. Set up for your test, using the same device, the same room, and the same internet connection you will use on World Wide Data Day.
  3. On the day of your test and sometime in your time slot, go to the World Wide Data Day 2018 Indico page, choose the Join button and follow the instructions. 

For more detailed instructions on Vidyo, see the Masterclass Library Vidyo page
