This week's tech drop is all about Google Meet, a video conferencing platform that allows users to connect with others in real-time through video and audio calls.

Google Meet is compatible with all staff and student devices and can be hosted by computers or mobile devices.

Users can access Google Meet through the CCS Portal or by selecting Meet from Google's waffle menu.
