How do I introduce Breakout to Students?

Please follow the steps below:

1. Along with the section invitation link, you may share the following Onboarding Resources either on your LMS or directly with students:

  1. Student Onboarding Guide (individual student paid)

  2. Student Onboarding Guide (institutional paid)

  3. Student Onboarding Guide (student bundle paid)

  4. Breakout Tutorial Video

See Invite Students to a Class if you need help generating an invitation link.

2. Once students have successfully followed your invitation link, they will see any assignments on their Assignments (home) page and can join a group once the assignment becomes available to them.

Did you know? You can see what your students see from Student View!

3. Once they are in a group, they will complete the Pre-Work and, when they're ready, start the Pre-Session Quiz.

If your assignment does not have a Pre-Session Quiz, skip ahead to step 6.

4. Each Pre-Session Quiz takes about ten minutes or less to complete.

5. Breakout shows students your grading criteria (if applicable) before their quiz begins.

6. After they take the quiz, they will click Exit to Portal to join the session

7. They will click Start Session

8. They can check their audio/video before they join the session. When they're ready, they will click Join Session
