Based on feedback from teachers across the world, Google has made some features “Sticky.” What this means is when you turn on/off certain HOST features, they will remain that way when you start your next Google Classroom meet. Which means, if you turn off the present screen or chat for one class, it be off the next time you open that same meet link.
Another feature that started rolling out on Jan 7, 2021 was additional features off of the Google Meet landing page. https://meet.google.com/ When you create a new meeting you will have the following three options:
- Create a meeting for later:
- Start an instant meeting:
- Schedule in Google Calendar:
These feature have yet to hit our domain, so be on the lookout if you use the Meet landing page. I use it a lot to create meetings for teachers and students to pop into, if they have questions.
