Best Practices for a Successful Call:
1. Use a computer or laptop if possible. Works well with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge. A cell phone will make it challenging to participate because you will only be able to see the translation screen or the zoom screen but not both screens at once. 2. Speak slowly and clearly. 3. State your primary language (pause a couple of seconds) 4. To introduce yourself: please say your name, country, the person with OCNDS’s name and age, 1 challenge, and 1 success (up to 1 minute) 5. Think about what you will say before speaking to help with ease of translation. 6. Make sure you are in a quiet place so the translation technology can hear you. Try to avoid having music in the background. 7. Avoid talking over other speakers. Stay on mute when not speaking. 8. Privacy, confidentiality, and safety are of the utmost importance during these family zoom calls. 9. The meeting will last for 90 minutes.
