Google Meet adds breakout rooms to allow smaller group discussions

Online classes with tons of students can be overwhelming for both the learners and the teachers, especially when you want to encourage interaction. Google hopes to help out by rolling out breakout rooms for its Meet app. It's rolling out first to Enterprise for Education customers, but it will be available to more users later this year. This highly requested feature will let educators divide participants into smaller groups. Moderators can create up to 100 breakout rooms, with participants randomly and evenly distributed across rooms. But the organizers can move participants around manually, too. Teachers and moderators can jump from one breakout room to another to supervise or join discussions.
