Management is the most important thing when doing a Meet:

• • Everyone cannot talk at once

  • May get feedback and echoes

  • Need to establish this with students

  • All microphones should be muted when students first login

  • If students wish to talk, they should raise their hands or use the Chat Window, and wait

  • for the teacher to acknowledge them

  • Once acknowledged by the teacher, students must un-mute themselves.

  • For reasons of privacy, attendees must un-mute themselves. The teacher cannot do that.

Break The Lesson Into Segments:

Students have a difficult time attending to 45- 50 minutes of lecture-type instruction. It’s best to break the lesson into segments.

• Introduce topics with an “all class” Meet (15 – 30 minutes)

• Direct students to a consistent starting place to find assignments:

  • a Google Doc

  • a Google Classroom (Stream Page or Classwork Page)

  • a teacher website

  • an all-school starting page, with names of all the teachers listed, with links to their individual starting places

• Students do activities assigned by the teacher (on their own, or small groups)

• Students can be assigned to meet in small Meet Groups for discussion (set up by teacher)

• Return for a follow-up “all class” Meet on another day:

  • Q & A

  • Summarize the lesson

  • Determine what students have learned while doing the assignments

  • Explain grading system for assignment
