Make it stand out Emoji reactions. Instead of the confetti style that Google Meet uses, the actual count of reactions is shown in the bottom left corner. It pulls double duty: a silent way to express yourself to the class and for instructors to informally tally votes (e.g. does everyone get this concept before we move on? Vote thumbs up or down). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/534040ace4b0ba34df9d172f/d9e1c67d-f493-4dee-a266-01d21080e18a/Goal-2.png Hey there, I'm Sam - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/534040ace4b0ba34df9d172f/03d8c42c-b770-4225-9748-a783fc1a54c1/Wires+4.png Hey there, I'm Sam - Make it stand out Another streamer inspired layout, that places the presenter in the corner of their presentation.

Inspiration from gaming tournaments on Twitch. Clipping corners out of presentations was a no-go. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/534040ace4b0ba34df9d172f/64ead875-854c-4128-9972-8eeff4d6bb24/Full+Screen.png Hey there, I'm Sam - Make it stand out Fullscreen mode hides the bottom bar and makes its’ background transparent.

Instead of the confetti style that Google Meet uses, the actual count of reactions is shown in the bottom left corner.

Vote thumbs up or down). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/534040ace4b0ba34df9d172f/9978c4c6-f520-49f2-8790-df75b90f87b0/Onboarding+1.png Hey there, I'm Sam - Make it stand out The introductory onboarding page for the online classroom.
