Fantastic! There are so many KZread tutorials where the teacher starts with a lot of unnecessary chatter until he/she finally gets to the point. Scott dives right in and carefully illustrates how you do the basic items in breakout rooms. I highly recommend this tutorial.

One of the best videos - I just had a need for breakout rooms and you thoroughly guide me through the process. Thanks

A brilliantly explained tutorial that's allows even a technophobe like me to understand how to use breakout rooms. Thank you so much.

This is really awesome.

Thank you for your clear instruction. This tutorial was just the right length, really clear, nice pace, thank you so much!

This took the mystery out of using breakout rooms on Zoom. Thank you!

I've been teaching via ZOOM for three semesters. The Simpletivity instructions are the best for me of allI have tried. Slow paced, clear direction, easy to few cursor movements on screen and good examples. When I finish a topic I feel confident about using that aspect of ZOOM in my class. I honestly can't think of a question after viewing. I enjoy using ZOOM and students feel connected. Thanks for all lessons.

Hello! Can I assign students into breakout rooms when I schedule the meeting or do I need to wait until the meeting has been begun? Julie

I would like to have a co-host in each room I would also like to pre-assign the co-host to the room then when the meeting opens I would use the Zoom to auto fill the rooms

Thanks for the tutorial. Question - is there a way to have the participants choose for themselves which room they wanted to go to? Say you have 5 leaders in different rooms and person A wants to hear Leader A, but after a few minutes decides that he would rather hear Leader B. Can they move from room to room?

Question : In Breakout room, can a host/co host do a spotlight video/share screen for participant in the breakout room?

holy cow that was amazing! thank you so much for providing such a clear and easy-to-understand tutorial for a beginner like me. I so appreciate you!!!!

@Simpletivity

Great question, Brittany. No one is assigned as a host by default when placed in a breakout room. So participants do not have the ability to mute others or kick them out of the room. However, prior to sending people to a breakout room, you could make certain people a co-host which would give them this ability. However, they would also have other host capabilities like yourself.

Thanks a lot. Could you also do a video on how to SHARE breakout rooms Whiteboards with the host and the participants of other breakout rooms when they return to the Main meeting room? The participants in the breakout rooms might have discussions or brainstorming on a shared Whiteboard or other documents.

Mosaic is another cloud based whiteboard, where groups can all work on the same or different whiteboards... there is a one month trial to see if you like it. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it seems really practical... Scott - have you used it?

Such a great feature to use with a classroom! I'm teaching my 5th graders how to use these breakout rooms.

You did an outstanding job explaining this thank you!

When I have broken my participants into their rooms is there a way I can send a message to just one group or just one person? Also how can a group participant send a message to me and just me?

excellent tutorial. One other point to mention: the people in the breakout rooms will NOT be able to see your shared screen nor the whiteboard. they are, as you said, truly separate meeting rooms.

I am wondering if there is any way to pre-populate content in a Zoom breakout room for people to work on in small groups? Say I want them to annotate a document together i.e. a Google Doc in the breakout rooms? Or place a worksheet on the whiteboard that they then add to? Can this be done?
