Zoom meeting with multiple attendees

I will be running a zoom meeting with five attendees including myself. What happens if multiple attendees start speaking over each other? How can I control that? Will they hear me if I try to intervene if multiple attendees are already talking so simultaneously?

 hi @Enidtheccdm ,

 

Good question. If people talk to each other, nobody can really tell what is going on. Many hosts will mute all attendees and then ask them to hold up a virtual hand when they want to speak. You can then keep everyone under control by turning on that microphone and going from there. 
You can even setup a meeting with permission for you to turn on their microphones rather than requesting

 

all the best
