Once the moderator asks for quiet she will post the rules again and the chat workshop begins with our guest. To pose a question to the presenter you must place a ? and the moderator will put you in the queue. Once you've placed your ? begin to type your question and be ready when the moderator calls your name. ex: Lea: ?

The same rule applies when you are leaving. Simply log out. After each chat you are asked to log out instead of simply closing the page.
