Virtual Breakout Rooms are a new feature for Microsoft Teams that will be introduced from Mid-December.
When you create a meeting, you will now have the option to separate your meeting attendees into smaller groups, away from the main meeting.
This is great for brain-storming sessions or really useful for group work if you are teaching.
As an organiser you can easily move between break-out groups, just as you would move round a meeting room or teaching space.
Visit the Breakout Rooms Learning Pathway (step by step guidance from Microsoft, on our University of Bath - Learning Pathways site) to discover how to create and manage a Breakout Room for your next meeting or class.
University of Bath - Learning Pathways is our online, interactive learning platform where you can learn all about Microsoft 365 tools and features. It’s filled with easy to use ‘how-to’ guides, hints and tips to help you get the most from your Microsoft tools.
