Re: [lace] Virtual lace classes
Wow, that was quick! Thank you very much Cindy, Sue and Kathryn. This is of great help. I will try that in the following days to see how it works.

Re: [lace] Virtual lace classes
Dialing in to a Zoom meeting with more than one device is no different than you and your friend dialing in to a Zoom meeting from different locations. The only caveat is that you must have sound turned off on one of your devices (not just mute - turn the volume of the speaker off) or it will cause echo and/or feedback that everyone in the meeting will hear (because of lag). Each device gets its own window on the meeting screen. Perhaps you've participated in a Zoom meeting where a husband and wife each logged in separately from different rooms. It's the same thing!

Re: [lace] Virtual lace classes
Hi Kathryn, I am wondering how you do this: you must connect your lap top to ZOOM and also your Mobile phone to zoom. How is this possible? Do you need two accounts? How do you connect to the same Zoom class with two devices? Thank you so much for sharing your experience! Best wishes! Antje, from Spain. Where the possibility of teaching virtually at the moment is the only one we can use...
