## Description

With this highly-requested feature, educators can offer increased engagement in their classes by splitting students up for simultaneous small group discussions or working time. Moderators can also jump between breakout rooms to monitor and participate in discussions.

Breakout rooms also work for employee-created meetings!

## Additional Details

You can create up to 100 breakout rooms in a call. Call participants will then be randomly and equally distributed across the rooms. You can also manually move people into different rooms. Check out the [Google Help Center](https://support.google.com/meet/answer/10099500) for more details.

While only event creators can create breakout rooms, anyone with a Google account that is joining from the web or through the Meet app can be a participant.

Breakout rooms must be created during a video call on a computer.
