This online study group uses Zoom technology. For those who are unfamiliar with this video conferencing program, you don’t need to download any software, because that process is automatic once you sign into the meeting. The first time you use the technology, you should probably sign in ten minutes early just to experiment and become familiar with it. I found three online tutorials for participants:
