Can I create a meeting within a meeting?
MariusPretorius thanks for your suggestion. My concern is that many of my guest speakers are not in the same time zone as me. Hence, sending a meeting invite with the correct time for them to join would be ideal, so that there is no confusion. I'm thinking, maybe I should create a channel within my team where I invite guest lecturers and the students at the mid-class time. So the students join the class as usual on the general channel but join the guest lecture in the specific channel at the allotted time and can leave this and rejoin the original class when the guest lecture is over. Not sure if that is the best way though.
Vanyajain I understand better what your requirement is, now that you clarify about the time zones. Your proposal seems like a workable solution.
Alternatively, if you know that your Guest is going to present 1 hour after you have started, you can send the invitation with a note that the Guest Lecturer will present 1 hour after the start of the meeting. They will see the starting time according to their time zone and add 1 to it
.
You can try out either way and see which works best and then give feedback here so that the community can learn from your experience.
All the best!
