I have been working for 10 years teaching with Adobe Connect breakout rooms and now with Zoom breakout rooms. I provide you with some useful tips and ideas about how to make the best use of the breakout rooms when working with students. These tips are based on observations and a few questionnaires that I have run with students after using Zoom breakout rooms. Tips include
1) Setting up a leader for each group
2) Making sure students know how to work with NEW SHARE
3) Make sure students know how to save the content in their IWBs so they can share it when they move back to the main group
4) Great tips around tasks, how to use the webcams, how to observe lessons etc.
If you make use of these ideas and use some of the tips I have suggested, you may find that your breakout sessions become much more successful. I found the tips I have suggested with webcams etc to be very useful. It has helped to make my Zoom classes more student focused and I have worked out ways of keeping the students on task. It is really important to make sure they save any discussions they have in the Zoom breakout rooms so that when they come back to the main room they can share their ideas with the rest of the class. It is also important that they know how to NEW SHARE so they can jump from sharing one thing to sharing another thing very easily so that they don't have to stop sharing. I also find it useful for students to learn to make use of all the tools when working with the IWB software. They can learn to clear the screen, add pages and write from the corner so that everything is clear and easy for the teachers to read.
