CSA 2021 Annual meeting

Conference Program

This page displays the website version of the conference program,

corrections/revisions to wording, Nov 10-11.;  major revision to schedule Nov 8.

Welcome.

We are excited about a great lineup of presentations.  Thank you for joining us.

Zoom login instructions are posted below, followed by the matrix, and the full printed list of presenters.

Please return to this page on the morning of the conference to re-click the access link below, and see any updates (refresh your screen when you arrive). 

The link to the conference is below,

https://rb.gy/yftndq

See the login process below (5 steps).

You are entering a conference of webinar sessions, built through zoom events.  For more detail, see the links below,

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/4404105243405-Joining-Zoom-Events

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/4402706205325-Getting-started-as-a-Zoom-Events-Attendee

 

While there are several ways to join, as described by zoom docs linked above, some users were having trouble with accessing Zoom on day 1 of the conference.  Through extensive consultation with
Zoom support, they have provided additional detail for a more secure login process.

See below for the five steps,

1. If you are a panelist or organizer/presider who is speaking at the conference and already received an invitation via email or calendar with a ticket to enter, then skip to step two.  If you are not a panelist or organizer/presider, login to the conference link on the CSA conference page (scroll up) and click the links on the screen to register.
This will give you a free ticket. The panelists were already sent an email&calendar invite with a free ticket, so they don’t need to register to get one.
The free ticket is the equivalent of a password that is needed to enter the conference. It is specific to your email address.

The above step only needs to be done once, and the remainder of the instructions are the same for all users.

2. login to zoom.us/signin

Signin with the exact same email address as is listed in the conference program.
It is suggested to use the “Sign on with Google” or other single sign on, if possible.

If you do not have a zoom account under the email address listed in the program,
then you should create a free zoom account with that email address.

3. Open the zoom desktop app (i.e, software installed on your computer) and make sure you are logged into the desktop app using the same email account as you used in the previous step (the email address listed in the CSA program).

Zoom help for locating the desktop client app is here: .support.

You can see account info on the top right of the desktop app, to make sure you are using the same email address.

4.Non-speakers were sent a ticket when they registered starting on the day of the conference, and panelists were sent a ticket automatically without registering. For some users, these tickets may have arrived (again) today.  It should say “official conference” and “Tim Kubal” in the invitation.  It is OK if the invitation you get is from the wrong room, the ticket gives you speaker rights in all rooms.

There are three different ways to join from here (4a,4b,4c below). I find 4c the easiest way but zoom suggest 4a or 4b is most secure.

4a. Click the conference ticket you were sent via email or via calendar invite. Follow the prompts to join the conference.

4b. Another way to join besides via the ticket you were sent, you can access your ticket (and join) by going to
events.zoom.us

Zoom should have created an account here already based on the same email you were using in the previous steps. If you need to login again (top right of the screen), it will be the same email address as the previous steps.
Once you are logged in to events.zoom.us, click the tab called “tickets” and then “upcoming”
and you will see the conference listed, and a tab that you can click to join. 

4c. Another way to access besides via the ticket sent via invitation, or via zoom events, is to access by clicking the conference join link at the top of this page (scroll up).  When clicking the conference link, do not click register, but instead make sure you are logged in (top right corner) with the same email address, and then when logged in, it will give you the link to “join lobby”.

5. The previous step should take you to the conference lobby. In the lobby you can see some of the sessions in progress streamed to the lobby,
and control sound playback etc.of the stream.

Scroll down (or click the link “sessions” on the left) to see more sessions. 

The rooms are listed according to the conference program on the CSA website (e.g, room A, room B, etc).

You can click “join” button to join any of the sessions in person.  A new zoom screen will popup asking you to start the session.  Follow the prompts to start.  When done, exit the webinar and lobby will still be open. 

. Use the menu on the left side of the lobby to see other functions. 

So that’s it — the most secure way to login.

If you logout, you likely will need to complete steps #2-5 again.

If you have trouble with the above, please re-read the steps above, make sure you are doing it right and please try a second time.

Below are more troubleshooting ideas,

  Zoom’s homepage provides live chat support. There’s quite a bit of troubleshooting ideas here.

The status of webinars is listed here: RUNNING 

CSA Support Contact: calsoc.org@gmail.com

CSA admin support (Tim Kubal)  is simultaneously logged into each of the six available zoom rooms in the conference. He obviously cannot be listening to all six rooms at the same time. Please use the chat, which he does try to monitor.  Phone support 559 – 960 – zero-five-nine-five (text only unless urgent, please).

Instructions for Entering and Moving Throughout the Conference

Just like a traditional conference, there are rooms in which each session will present.  The rooms correspond to the columns in the matrix below. For example, the first column is labeled as Room A, and all the sessions in that column will join the webinar labeled “Room A”.  The room is also listed for each session in the detailed list of presenters (below the matrix).  These rooms are shared throughout the day.  When your session is done, there will be 15 minutes until the next session starts. 

Please make sure to end your session on time, so the next session may use the 15 minutes for setup.  The organizer/presider has the main responsibility for watching the time, to ensure participation by each panelist, and to start/end the session on the scheduled time.  The panelists and audience have a professional responsibility to follow the schedule too, to not partake in presentations or discussions beyond the allotted time. Ongoing conversations are wonderful and can be accomplished in the lobby, via private chat, or in the “open room” (a zoom meeting room available for this purpose, which you will see when you login).

On the day of the conference, plan to arrive about 15 minutes early to your session, and begin logging in about 25 minutes before the start of your session, just in case it takes a little longer than expected to join.

Panelists and session organizers are encouraged to attend as many sessions as possible as an audience member. You will use the same login/ticket to the conference regardless of your role.

Panelists (presenters and organizers) are given rights to use their audio and video and share their screen.  Other attendees are only given rights to listen and use the chat or q&a features, unless the session organizer (or admin) elevates them to panelist.  Panelists that have trouble logging in with the correct account may be able to login as an audience member and then have their session organizer (or admin) elevate them to panelist.  Ask in the chat if you are a speaker in the session and need to be elevated, and admin will do it. Instructions for organizers to facilitate discussion are here.

Note that panelists should mute their microphones when they are not speaking, to avoid feedback during their sessions.

If you experience problems, you can search the zoom archives for support, use their chat on their website, and email CSA admin for support at calsoc.org@gmail.com.  There is a number for text message support from CSA admin above.

Please let us know if you see errors in the program — calsoc.org@gmail.com  Check back here for any updates.  The  instructions to enter each zoom session for the actual conference will be posted at the top of this conference webpage by Nov 10. 

All conference participants must pay for registration and membership to enter the conference.

Zoom has had issues with the practice sessions that were opened a week before the conference, and some users were not able to login. We have discontinued these practice sessions for the time being.   The practice sessions have several limitations inherent in the Zoom system, which have been causing problems with some logins.  The actual conference should work smoothly as it doesn’t have the same limitations. We apologize for any inconvenience that the error-prone practice sessions have caused.

For those people listed on the program, you will have special speaking/video privilege that are not available to the audience.  To access, you must login to zoom with the email listed in the CSA program.  The full list of sessions (to be published on afternoon of Nov 8) includes the email address you used to submit your presentation title to your session organizer. This is the email address you will need to use to login to zoom on the day of the conference. If your existing zoom account uses a different email address than we have in our list of sessions, there is a problem because the addresses must match for you to enter the conference.  To solve this issue, you can either create a free zoom account using the matching email address, or send us a message (calsoc.org@gmail.com) to have us update your email address to match your existing Zoom account.  

Thank you to Xuan Santos, CSA president-elect for organizing the conference.  Thank you to each session organizer for their important service.  Thank you to each presenter for their most valuable contributions.  The combined contributions of many will help ensure that our annual conference, once again, provides a forum for sharing exciting research within a supportive atmosphere.
