When filling out the
schedule form you need to know:
What is a
"Requester"? - the one who
submits the "Schedule a Meeting" form
What is a
"Facilitator"? - could be
the one who submitted the form (this is done as a default), but can also be
assigned to anyone who is to be the "Leader" of the meeting
What is a
"Presenter"? - basically
additional facilitators who will also present during the meeting
What is a
"Participant"? - any
individual you want to have attend the meeting, by default a
"Participant" would be one who has a UH username
What is a
"Guest"? - a
"Participant" who does not have a UH Username
In the form……….
If the Facilitator is different than the person
submitting the meeting request, click and type in the first/last name of that
person in the "Facilitator Name:" text block as well as their UH username in
the "Facilitator UH Username:" text block.
If you had "additional" presenters, those
who will present during the meeting, enter their UH username in the "Presenters:" text block.
Enter a Meeting Title and a short Description in the designated areas.
Enter a Start Date and Time, plus End Time by typing in MM-DD-YYYY and use the pull down menus
to select Hour, Minute and AM/PM. **Click on the Calendar icon to view what meeting openings are
available - remember to consider the number of participants in your meeting as well
as other meetings that are occurring at the same time so as not to exceed the
40 user limit.
IF you would like to use add a Phone Bridge for your
meeting, select the checkbox for "Request Audio Phone Bridge". This will allow a phone connection to be
created which will enable non-audio participants to call in and listen to the meeting. **You can only request a Phone Bridge if you have a
participant list of 4-15 users.
Use the pull down menu for "Total number
of participants" to
indicate how many TOTAL users will be attending the meeting. By default, this
already includes the Facilitator. So, if you are the requester and as well as
the facilitator, plus have 2 additional presenters and want to have 4
participants attend the meeting the total number you would select in the pull
down menu would be 6. **GUESTS would also be included in this TOTAL number of participants.
IF you are teaching a course and would like to have
all your officially registered students attend the meeting (as long as that
number does not exceed the 40 user limit), use the pull down menus for Campus?,
CRN? And Term? This will auto
populate your meeting with the correct UH Usernames of your students.
On the other hand, if you would like participants,
not associated with any course, who have UH usernames attend to your meeting,
enter each UH username in the "List UH Usernames" text block.
**GUESTS are participants without UH usernames, so no
information would go in this area for them, just confirm that ALL
"Guests" are included in the "TOTAL number of participants"
pull down menu.
Click "Submit" when done.
