Google Voice

 

 

  • Use a Google Voice number with your students and you won't have to worry about students having your phone number. They can call and text you during the times you want to permit that, and when you don't, you have all the calls go straight to voicemail where you can read or listen to them later.
  • Google keeps a record of every call and text conversation you have with your students, and you can even record calls that you feel need to be recorded.

 

Tips to Help you Manage Your Teaching Environment Using Google Voice

 

  • One number: a single phone number that rings all your phones
  • Free SMS: send, receive & store text messages online
  • Block calls: send unwanted callers straight to voicemail
  • Record calls: record phone calls and store them online
  • Conference calls: join several people into a single call
  • Screen callers: hear who is calling before you pick up
  • Watch videos of these features in action ยป
