Google Plus Hangouts on Air Skills: use Google Hangouts on air Concepts: Hangout applications, processing and communication speed requirements, extensibility, user interface We will begin with some examples of Google Hangouts on Air, then look at the menu structure and options when starting or participating in a hangout. We will also discuss the processing and communication requirements of hangouts and video in general. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License.

Some examples Hangouts are video online meetings. Up to ten people may participate in a Hangout. Let’s look at a few examples of ways people use them. Note that the screen layout has changed slightly since I picked these examples.

Virtual field trips School field trips This video illustrates educational applications of Hangouts. School field trips

Podcasts Here we see a Hangout being used for a regular weekly podcast. There are four people in the hangout – they are shown at the bottom of the video window. The software automatically discovers who is speaking and shows him or her in the larger window. Participants can also share their screens in that large area. Hangouts are limited to ten active participants, but any number of others can watch.

News 2.0? Two LA Times columnists and an energy price expert in an 8 minute 13 second Hangout interview. Print story at http://lat.ms/RJKDYN LA Times interview How would the print LA Times or radio or TV news handle this story? Which do you prefer? What is the business model?

Political discussion Watch the hangout Discussion of politics and issues between President Obama and a diverse group of experts and citizens after the State of the Union address.. Watch the hangout

Business or project meeting

Hangouts on air Ten participants Unlimited viewers Recorded Stored on YouTube at end Up to 8 hours long There are two kinds of Hangout. Regular Hangouts are garden variety video chats, but Hangouts on Air have important additional features. Google can do this because they also own YouTube. Let’s see how to start a Hangout on Air, invite people to it, and finally, end it. Why does Google offer automatic recording when Skype and other video chats do not?

Video requires speed Problematical class session We tried a class session using a Hangout on air last term and it failed due slow hardware and connections to the Internet. Problematical class session

How much speed? Minimum CPU speed: Dual core processor with a clock speed of at least 2GHz Operating system required: Current or two previous versions of a major operating system Internet connection speed: Upstream: 900kbps Downstream, with five participants: 2mbps Downstream, with ten participant with 10 participants: 3mbps These are the Hangout hardware requirements. Is your CPU fast enough for a Google hangout? Is your Internet connection? Is your operating system compatible with Google Plus? Will this be an issue in five years?

Summary We saw several examples of Hangouts and looked at the user interface and commands. We looked at the added capability in a Hangouts on Air and noted the communication and CPU hardware requirements for a Hangout. We also saw that Hangouts is extensible, providing a platform for developers of add-in applications.

Self-study questions What is the difference between a hangout and a hangout on air? What is the CPU speed of your PC – is it fast enough for a Hangout? What is the upstream speed of your home Internet connection? The down stream speed? Are they fast enough for a Hangout? List as many ways as you can think of to use hangouts in education. Which do you think would be most effective? Why? Write a summary of the above two questions. How could a study team in school use Google Hangouts? You can share and edit Google Drive documents during a Hangout – how could a study team in school use that capability? You can share a Youtube video during a Hangout – how could you use that capability for fun?
