001so in this video we're going to take a look at what it looks like from the students perspective to join the classroom or join your Google Hangouts meeting currently you could see them in the classroom that I created from the previous video utilizing the calendar so I have an open classroom going this is my period one bead a math schedule I don't know what I was typing when I did that and again quickly refreshing the interface you can see that the connection information as far as how to connect is on the Left I have my microphone muted I'm doing this because I'm using this computer as both the student and the teacher and if I have both of them turned on it does some very crazy things with the microphone so I'm trying to not
002have that reverb and all that noise come through there and I set my webcam turned off because yeah nobody wants to see me at 10 o'clock at night I have nothing else turned on I'm not showing any screens and if I look at the top right here I could see that there's one participant in the class right now and that's me I can choose to invite people as we as we've discussed in previous videos and I can look at what the chat window is doing which right now there is no chat but at this point I have an active classroom but nobody's in it so let's go ahead and look at it what it looks hopefully look at what it looks like from the students point of view so I'm going to open this browser
003window here and bring it over possibly I'm going / this is my sample student good old Rudy test so we can see that I'm in here is Rudy test my sample student and Rudy got my previous email where I invited him from the calendar page so I'm gonna go ahead and click on this and you're gonna see that this is what the invitation looks like it's a standard Google meetings invite our Google Calendar and right excuse me and you'll see the information that the meeting itself also contains a link for the student to join the hangout eats so if I go ahead and I click on this it should direct me to join and I'm going to allow the use of the microphone let us shut that off and I'm also gonna mute my cellphone
004here because again funny things happen when you try to open a microphone for two different devices close by one another so now I'm in here and I'm gonna go ahead and click join now and you can see that I'm in the meeting as the student so just to clarify teacher interface you could see that this is me the teacher and this is the student interface so this is what the student sees so the student can unmute their mic can put on their camera they can do some of the same things that you can but not the same things they can still invite other people to the meeting because this is an open session they could see the chat window and see who's in the chat or see excuse me the invitee list or the people
005list as it's called and they could see everybody that's in the list and they can also access the chat window so so if I do that and then I switch back to the teacher view you'll see that I got a message on my screen and I can click my little chat window and I can see that Rudy as is having a problem so from the students perspective at this point the system looks very similar to the teacher and they can see much the same thing so what I'm going to do is I'm going to take my teacher window and move it off the side here to not confuse people so we just have our excuse me wrong window move this over here this is the student window and I'm going to now share my screen
006with the students so as the teacher I'm going to go ahead and I am going to find something that I want to show and I'm going to share this with the students so I'm going to go to present now as we discussed in the previous video and I'm going to present my screen and it's going to be my teacher screen so now the students will see as it's loading the students will see my screen which looks a little confusing because it's actually bad but I'm gonna go ahead and switch now to Google News and you'll see that within a second or so it'll update now it is definitely not a perfectly live stream however if I'm referencing a PowerPoint or if I'm showing them an article or if I'm reviewing information that would be beneficial
007for the class to discuss its fluent enough that if I click on everything is about the coronavirus so it's important it's rapid enough as I'm scrolling the page the student can see it updating almost instantly so if I click on this news article from NPR and I scroll down as a class it gets a little grainy but as soon as the page goes static it should clean up a little bit and it's more than usable for the students to reference back to I can also switch back to my interface and stop presenting and then we go back to a static page
