Breakout room - what is it?
It's a feature in Zoom where the host can divide the participants into randomized groups. When it comes to online school, it is the worst thing on the planet. On the surface it sounds like a decent idea, but when you have classes with only a few friends and a lot of students who you know never do any work, it's all on you to get anything done. You have to have pretty good RNG to be paired with students who will actually also do work.
Teacher: Alright guys, I'm going to be putting you guys into breakout rooms for the next five minutes.
Student A: Great, time to try and be productive for a whole five minutes while no one else does anything.
Student B: *Says nothing because he isn't even in the room*
What does "breakout room" mean?
A separate space in a zoom meeting usually for students to have a discussion on what they’re learning in class aka the absolute bane of my existence
Teacher: All right students I’m putting you into breakout rooms so you can discuss *topic*
Students: goddammit
In the breakout room: awkward silence
