Adding a Google Meet link to your Google Classroom makes it easy for students to join virtual class sessions directly from the Classroom interface. Here's a simple guide based on the standard process.
You can add a Google Meet link to Google Classroom by generating it within your class settings or directly from the main class stream.
Step-by-Step Guide to Generating Your Meet Link
Integrating Google Meet with your classroom stream provides a consistent location for students to find meeting access. Follow these steps to generate and display your unique class Meet link:
- Sign in to Google Classroom: Start by navigating to classroom.google.com and signing in with your account.
- Select Your Class: Click on the specific class where you want to add the Meet link.
- Generate the Link: You have two main options to generate the link:
- Option A (Directly): Look for the "Meet" section typically near the top of the class stream. Click on the Generate link button there.
- Option B (Via Settings): Alternatively, click on the Settings gear icon in the top right corner of the class page. Scroll down to the "General" section. Under "General," find the "Meet" area and click on Generate Meet link.
- Link Appears: Once generated, a Meet link will appear specifically for your class.
- Save Changes: Make sure to click Save (usually in the top right corner if you used the Settings route) to confirm the change and make the link visible to your students on the class stream.
Once saved, the Google Meet link will be prominently displayed on your class stream, allowing students to easily join your scheduled or impromptu virtual meetings.
Benefits of Using the Integrated Meet Link
- Easy Access: Students don't need to search for meeting codes or separate links.
- Consistency: The same link is used for all class meetings, reducing confusion.
- Organization: Keeps all class-related activities, including virtual meetings, within the Classroom environment.
This process ensures that your virtual meeting space is readily available and connected directly to your digital classroom hub.
