What is Google Meet?
Google Meet sessions (i.e. Conferencing) are a great way to connect with others who are far away. "Meets" are virtual meetings (for up to 100 attendees) that allow you to see and hear one another, share screens, chat and even record your sessions. Google Meet is available for all TTSD staff and students at this time.
