Re: Moving from Zoom Webinar to Zoom Meeting - AND Managing Breakout Groups!


 

Apparently one more tidbit I know

I have just discussed how we might manage breakout groups in Zoom given what we are learning... we are now thinking that make active use of allowing people to join their own breakout groups (a newer feature in Zoom). We tested it with a laptop (using the Zoom app) as well as on apple phone and ipad (using Zoom apps in both cases), and the participants are able in all cases to move themselves in, out, and between groups - so this is good!

Does anyone know if each participant has to have the latest version of Zoom app on their device to be able to manage themselves in breakout groups? (or is it only the facilitator who needs to have the latest version?)

It's recent as late fall that this feature came out. Worse zoom doesn't have a feature that offers to download updates automatically. You will need to recommend they update.

You will also need to provide support for people who get stuck finding the feature in zoom

And does anyone know whether a participant who joins through their browser (not the app) is able to manage themselves through the breakout groups?

They can't self assign and need to be moved you.

So self organizing breakout rooms will help. You?will still need to work hard.
