To be recognized as wishing to speak it is necessary for you to “raise your hand” in the zoom application. Persons will be unmuted in the order in which they raised their hands. Following are the directions for the most widely used hardware accessing zoom indicating where you can find the “raise your hand” button and how to request to be recognized if you are dialing in from a telephone.
