Google Meet tools to better connect teachers with students
Google has announced exciting new features for its video calling app Meet to help educators boost interactivity with students Google said it is making it easier to manage meeting attendees. 
 
When someone asks to join a meeting, they won’t be able to ‘knock’ again after being ejected from a meeting, and a ‘knock’ will no longer show up after a moderator rejects it twice.
 
The company said, “Plus, we’re updating the knocking interface to make knocks less intrusive for educators. Moderators will also be able to end the meeting for all participants, ensuring no students linger after the teacher has left”.
 
Google said it will soon block anonymous attendees from joining any Education meetings by default, though schools will be able to opt-in to allow anonymous participants.
 
Google informed, “To help students and educators feel more comfortable while on video from their homes, we will enable them to blur out their surroundings or replace their background, with presets or uploaded images (with admin controls to disable this functionality)”.
