Online faculty are using Google Hangouts to augment their discussions and students love the experience! In our MFA Program, students hangout regularly with professors to discuss weekly topics.
Google Hangouts can be used for discussions, office hours, or meetings with small groups of students or other faculty. One of the perks of a Hangout is that it can be recorded and archived for viewing or reviewing.
Every student and faculty member has the ability to create a Google Hangout via their University Google accounts.
You could be using this dynamic tool in your online course! The Center for Online and Digital Learning would be happy to work with you on creating and using a Google Hangout with your students.
