Participants should be equidistant from the microphone. Speak into the microphone; don’t wander around the room while you talk. Keep extraneous noise to a minimum, such as rattling papers or tapping pens. No side conversations! If you must make noise, or if you won’t be contributing to the conversation for a time, mute your end of the call.
