Call the teacher into a virtual breakout room for help
When to use this goal
For students who get stuck in virtual breakout rooms and stay silent until the room closes, because the teacher is not there to notice. Present levels in online tools and help seeking decide fit. The request can be the platform's ask-for-help button, a chat to the host, or a group member asking with the student's agreement.
- Baseline
- Review 3 or 4 breakout rooms and note when the group was stuck (from the room recording, chat, or the teacher's visit) and whether anyone asked for help. Check that the student can find and use the help button on their device.
- Tips
- An opportunity is a time the group or the student is stuck on the task. Score correct when the student sends the request or clearly agrees to a group member sending it. Answer every help call quickly. Different from se-rh-022, which covers the main virtual class; this one covers rooms with no adult.
- Limits
- It is hard to see stuck moments without recordings; use teacher visits and chat logs. Some platforms do not have a help button; use a chat message instead.

- Record up to 4 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
