Plain old common sense. If you are able to make a simple motion, to make an amendment to a motion, to take a vote and to use several special procedures, you will know 90 percent of what is necessary to run a usual meeting or to participate as a member. Once you can do these few things smoothly, you can learn the rest as you go along. Obtain recognition from the Chairperson. Another member seconds motion.
Chairperson calls for debate.
Chairperson puts motion to a vote and announces the results. An amendment is made in the same way as a main motion. To strike words. To add words. To strike out and add words.
