Each meeting room can support multiple, automated break out rooms with timers and auto-assignment functionality.
Step by Step
Click the gear icon over the user list in the left toolbar
Click Create Breakout Rooms in the menu
Select the number of room, duration, and if you'd like candidates to choose their own room
Randomly assign users to room with the link --OR--
Click and drag users to rooms manually
Step by Step
Click the Breakout Rooms option in the toolbar on the left
All rooms will be displayed followed by a count of candidates in each room
Click the links to join the room or join just the audio (listen-in mode)
The remaining duration and a button to end all rooms early appears at the bottom
Once breakout rooms have started, instructors will be shown an additional menu in the left toolbar.
REMEMBER!
Manually assigning a large class to break out rooms can take a little time. If you have another instructor in the room, they can start setting those up before the breakouts begin and launch them when appropriate.
Breakout rooms are NOT recorded as part of the meeting
Breakout rooms will show the slide being displayed in the meeting room when the breakouts start --it's helpful to have instructions for the breakout sessions on the screen when they start.
