[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe it helps with bandwidth issues.  We do this at work all the time for that reason.  [/quote]

Oh, yes! I’m the teacher above and I forgot about this! If she’s on her chromebook the quality significantly decreases when more participants join. Keeping the camera off improves the audio and general quality of the meeting. 
I still stand by my previous response though. Email and ask. If she responds that it’s a bandwidth issue, ask her who you should contact at the school to help make sure that all teachers have the appropriate equipment to fix this problem by the fall. 
Hint: we need something other than chromebooks or to find a platform that performs better with it. [/quote]
I second this. 
We had to do live teaching for an hour per each special. When I had more than 50 students logged on (out if 129), the sound quality was very unstable . Admins have access to strong and fast Dell laptops while teachers have to
use the same Chromebooks as students. Turning the video off was very helpful in restoring quality especially while sharing the screen. [/quote]
