Google Hangouts Meet
There are three things about "Google Hangouts Meet" that we need to consider over "hangouts" for meeting purposes... yes these are two different things which makes no sense at all!
- You can create a "Google hangouts meet" meeting link when creating a calendar entry and invitation.
- You can call into a "Google hangouts Meet" but not a basic Hangouts
- You can video record a "Google hangouts Meet" but not a basic Hangouts

You can also turn the Google Hangeouts chat feature on in email. I have attached a picture of this setting.
In email go to the Gear icon in the upper right corner.
Select settings.
Select Chat in the top menu.
Chat: select Chat on.
I hope this helps clear up some confusion. At the end of the day, it seems like Google merged Hangouts with Meet and calling it Google Hangout Meets.

Google Meetings
We have fixed the few issues that would complicate using google meetings in a remote classroom setting now teachers can create meetings and allow others to attend those meetings either through a code or through google calendar. The meetings can also be saved for later to google drive should the teacher want to. Students can join meetings but cannot create them. Guests can be invited to a meeting even if they are not a staff or student.
