I wish Today's Meet existed when I was a student. This wonderful site allows you to open a temporary chat room for your students to speak to each other. It is incredibly useful, especially for engaging your quiet students. As a high schooler, socratic seminar days were my worst fear. Talking in front of everyone was a nightmare. Today's Meet helps to remove some of that stress from my students today. I use the site to keep a dialogue going in my outer circle, and my quiet students end up flourishing, because they are comfortable to share. The site is easy to use and a wonderful tool. I've also used it during video, for students to comment and ask questions without disrupting the class, and even during independent work when students are working hard and frequent questions might distract from the larger group.
