Todays Meet.Com

At a Staff Development session this week, a colleague used an interesting tool called Todays Meet. This is used as a way of capturing the audience’s feedback or questions or just general understanding of the subject matter.

How does it work? Today’s Meet gives you an online isolated room that your audience can use to start communicating with you the presenter and other delegates. You are able to choose how long the room is open for .You will need to save the transcript before the meeting room is closed.

This has many uses especially for teachers / Lecturers. This is a really simple and easy way to keep the momentum going after a lesson. It could be used to generate ideas before or after a lesson or a meeting. It could be used to get the students to explain in their own words a difficult concept or to check their understanding of a lesson keep in mind that you are only able to use up to 140 characters.

This could be a really simple but effective tool that could add an extra dimension to your lesson. To setup  your meeting go to Todays Meet.com. To create a room add a name for your room and select how long you would like the room open for and then make a note of the room URL in the web browser so you can access this again
