Why is it nice to have your camera on during our meetings?

3. Your friends can see you and you potentially your cool virtual background.

Unless they say to "popcorn" it out or use the chat and then do those things :).
What should you do if you get kicked off the meeting and miss a section of class?
See if you can figure out what we are doing when you come back in.
Stay after class to ask the teacher what you missed instead of interrupting the lesson.

What should you do if you get stuck in the lobby of a meeting?
Leave the lobby and try to rejoin the meeting.
We are always monitoring the lobby so there's a good chance if you aren't getting in, Teams is glitching and it's not that we don't see you.
