Interacting and communicating
Responding using emoijs
Do you want to respond to something, give a round of applause, or show that something was funny without talking? In imedu you can use the number keys 1 to 7 to make certain emoijs appear so that you can very easily give a reaction without interrupting anyone.
- = Fun
- = Funny
- = Applause
- = Great
- = Raise your hand
- = Angry
- = Sad
Chat
Another way to be able to communicate with each other is the chat. Each location has its own group chat, and you open it by pressing the ''chat'' button in the menu bar. In some cases, you cannot use the chat, in which case the teacher has temporarily disabled it.
Spatial Sound
When talking to each other through your microphone (headphones work best!) you will notice that the sound works just like in real life. You hear it coming from a certain direction, and it decreases in volumen as you get more distance from someone. Note that this can actually be customized per space, so sound might behave differently in some spaces if that works better.
Audio zones
Audio zones are 'invisible sound boundaries' that effect how sound travels through a space. You might find them in spaces with breakout rooms, so sounds does not travel outside a team area, or you can find 'speaker spots' which allow you to be heard anywhere in the space.
If a space has audio zones it is always mentioned in the description.
