AMS-Southwest Discussion on Zoom: Logistics

The Moderator

The moderator will guide the discussion. If you want to contribute to the discussion, send your question to the moderator or to the entire group not to the presenter.

Zoom chat offers many opportunities for increased interactions between all participants. It also creates new challenges as questions and comments can be typed simultaneously by multiple attendees in real time. Moderators may choose to to group similar questions together rather than responding to each question in the exact order offered.

Questions and Comments

Please use the chat feature to indicate that you’d like to ask a question or comment.

To help streamline discussion in the chat, please use the codes below:

  • = I’d like to ask a question. Even if you choose to type out your question in whole or in part, please begin with Q. Example: Q Was The Island Princess performed in the English colonies in North America?
  • = I’d like to offer a comment to be included in the discussion. Even if you choose to type out your comment in whole or in part
  • + = I have something I’d like to contribute to the discussion happening right now
  • FYI [plus text] = I’m offering some information or commentary for the speaker’s benefit, but this doesn’t need to be part of the discussion. Example: FYI My cat was enraptured by your paper. You have a new fan.

Although you do not need to be a member of the chapter to attend, you may wish to renew your chapter membership before or during the meeting. Our dues are now collected through the central AMS website. More information is available on the membership page
