How Can Your TAs Move Between Breakout Rooms?

You might have TAs and want them to move between breakout rooms to check on each group. In that case, please follow these steps. 

STEP 1: Designate your TAs as the Co-Hosts. 

1. Click on the Participants button at the bottom of your Zoom application. 
2. In the list of meeting participants, hover over the name of the participant you wish to make a co-host, and click on “More.” 
3. Select “Make Co-Host” from the list.
4. You can make as many people as co-hosts as you want.

STEP 2: Begin the breakout session.

1. As the host, create breakout rooms and assign participants.
2. Begin the breakout session. Please note that only the host can start a breakout session. 

• Your Co-Hosts can move between breakout rooms within zoom, but in order to do so they must first be in one of the breakout rooms. 
• So once the host opens the breakout rooms, the Co-Host must then click “Join” on the popup to join an assigned room first.

• Once in their assigned breakout room, the co-host may then move between breakout rooms by clicking on the “Breakout Rooms” button at the bottom of their Zoom application window.

• As the Co-Host, they should see a list of all in progress breakout rooms, along with the names of each participant in each breakout room. 
• They can click “Join” next to the name of the breakout room they wish to move to.
