Dragooncancer_ 06/26/20 12:48:19 PM #1:	Google Meets is the absolute WORST as a teacher. Like...what were they THINKING!??! As a teacher hosting a Google meet, I do not have the ability to: mute everyone on entry or prevent students from presenting their own screens. I am also not able to have everyone booted from a meeting once it's been closed. Do you know how difficult it is trying to get 1st and 2nd graders to stay quiet in an online meeting? Honestly, did anyone at Google think at all before about what tools a teacher would need to virtually host students? I know they are hoping teachers use it as their main video conferencing tool, because it's integrated into Google classroom. Ughhhh --- I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was, and now what I'm with isn't it. And what's "it" seems weird and scary to me. <cite>Dragooncancer_ posted [p:941291172] in Google Mee... [t:78804792]...</cite> <quote>Google Meets is the absolute WORST as a teacher.
