[CASL-L] Google Meet fix

[Donna Mingrone]

Hello,

Google did resolve this Meet issue. The link that you can create right in
Google Classroom is permanent, posted prominently in the class banner, and
safe. I told my teachers to always remember to leave their Meet last and to
close the Meet tab.  The attached video shows how to do this. (A big thank
you to my tech coordinator Pam Fowler!)

Donna
Please excuse the brevity of my responses or any typos due to my effort to
make a quick response at this time. Thank you. Stay safe!
