How to work with Google Meet?

Main rules of conducting lessons in Google Meet
✅ If the platform works, the lesson starts, the content is displayed, and the only thing that does not work is audio and video, then:
- We launch a lesson on the platform and send a link to the lesson to the student.
- We start a meeting in Google Meet and send a link to the meeting to our student.
- We conduct a lesson on the platform (as usual, we switch content and work with cards and a student), keeping in mind that we have video and audio going to Google Meet.
- We can, if necessary, use the screen sharing, and also ask the student to switch to the meeting tab for communication and discussion (especially relevant at the beginning and end of the lesson)
✅ If suddenly the lesson on the platform does not start, but your personal account works and displays the catalog of lessons, and the lesson is not displayed in the student's personal account:
- We start a meeting in Google Meet. We send a link to connect to the student.
- We start the screen sharing, select the platform content broadcast (lesson from the catalog)
- We go through the materials of the lesson (the student works with a screen demonstration), you can connect the Google Meet interactive whiteboard to add interactivity (put any tasks
- Important: when you show content from the Lesson Catalog (card view), when hovering over the interactive tasks, the student will see the displayed correct answer to it. It is important to take this into account.
✅ If it is technically impossible to even download the content of the lesson and the catalog of lessons:
We save the lesson and conduct it based on materials from our libraries or on our own materials (if relevant). We also use Google Meet, screen sharing and useful functionality. The possible materials are below:
