Daily school announcements via live Google Meet video are disorganized, outdated, and ineffective, with low student attention and accessibility issues for subs and gym classes.
Live video announcements are not easily accessible for substitutes and non-classroom settings (gym), are poorly maintained, and fail to engage students.
