Having enough room leaders should be prioritized over having enough notetakers. It is typically advised to pull a notetaker to a roomleader position (with their permission) if the alternative would be rooms with more than 10 people. But it's important that _everyone who is placed as a room leader volunteered to do so_, either by indication in the official volunteer request earlier in the week or on the day of the meeting. +#### Opening Breakout Rooms -- Pair each co-host with their notetaker. +#### Joining a Breakout Room -- _Note_: Sometimes, if the room leader is a VC Maintainer/zoom account owner, you may not see them on the list of attendees to be assigned. This is fine. So long as they're in the meeting, they can join their breakout room themselves. +### During the Main Discussion -- Change the name of the breakout room to the co-host/notetaker pair +#### Assigning Attendees to Breakout Rooms During the Chat -- Assign members into rooms as they come in - - Do your best to create breakout rooms that include a variety of participant types. For example, if you know there are members who will keep the conversation going, assign them to different rooms. If there are new folks, try not to put them all in the same room. If there's a newer room leader, try to add someone to their room that could support them if they need it. The goal is to have well-balanced rooms when possible. It won't ever be perfect for every room, but the goal is to try to balance participant types. +#### Sending the Return Broadcast Message + +#### Closing Breakout Rooms + + + +### After the Wrap Up + +#### Ending the Meeting + +## Tips + +Stay froggy and keep Slack open! + + + +[1]: /assets/images/make-co-host-01_animals.jpg +[2]: /assets/images/make-co-host-02_animals.jpg +[3]: /assets/images/make-co-host-03_animals.jpg +[4]: /assets/images/make-co-host-04_animals.jpg +[5]: /assets/images/create-breakout-room-01_animals.jpg +[6]: /assets/images/create-breakout-room-02_animals.jpg +[7]: /assets/images/create-breakout-room-03_animals.jpg +[8]: /assets/images/create-breakout-room-04_animals.jpg +[9]: /assets/images/assign-room-leaders-note-takers_animals.jpg
