On the first day of the Fall 2020 semester, we experienced serious Zoom frustrations.
And that was a good reminder that we
should be prepared with back-up videoconferencing options in case of future
outages. Fortunately, there are two UITS-recommended, IU-licensed products we
already have access to which also provide videoconferencing and screen sharing.
While Zoom remains the preferred solution (easiest-to-learn and navigate),
Google Meet is the recommended Plan B, with Microsoft Teams representing Plan
C. But that Microsoft Teams option is definitely a distant Plan C.
This week's Two Tip Tuesday overviews how to quickly access and share your IU Google Meet room.

Google Meet can be accessed through your IU Google account at: https://google.iu.edu (or by searching "Google" in one.iu.edu)
