If your school uses G Suite for Education, you can use Google Meet to set up a live teaching session with your students. You can even record the session and share it with others that weren’t able to attend. Follow these steps to present your lesson online:
Before you start, make sure your school Google G Suite administrator has enabled advanced features like recording in Google Meet.
Planning and starting
1. Choose and prepare your lesson (from the Library or My Lessons). Leave that lesson opened in your browser.
2. Go to Google Meet in a different tab and click Join or start a meeting.
3. Type in a nickname for the new meeting.
4. Click Join now.
5. Select and copy the meeting link (e.g. by using CTRL+C or ⌘+C) and share the meeting link with your students using e.g. email or other digital communication platforms.
Tip: if you want, you can also plan ahead using Google Calendar and add a shareable Google Meet conferencing link to the appointment.
6. Your students will be able to join the meeting after you admit them.
7. When you want to start the lesson, click the three dots in the bottom right corner and select Record meeting.
