[CASL-L] Safeguarding a Google Meet

[Jane Martellino]

Last spring I tested it every which way and for us, the only safe way was
for the teacher to create a link in calendar and since we use iPads, to
give students the letters that follow: meet.google.com/
The students use the Meet app and enter those letters and the teacher
admits them. We found using the link through Glassroom allowed students to
get in prior to teacher.  Perhaps things have changed since google made
some updates. We also found recently that a teacher used a generic word for
a “nickname” and another teacher just happened to use the same nickname and
she accidentally popped into someone’s class!
