Suggested functionality for breakout rooms

Hi,

I'm using Zoom when teaching and depend on breakout rooms for group work. The feature is excellent for my purposes but I lack the opportunity to monitor all groups at once, like a tradisjonell classroom situation.

My idea is that when breakout rooms have been activated, they should pop-up as live footage together on my screen and sound from a specific room would only be activated when hoovering over the live image with the cursor.

This would enable me to navigate smoothly between group discussions and enter swiftly when I see students need guidance.

This would make Zoom almost unbeatable!

    I used to be able to set up the breakout rooms on my computer, share my screen and then also sign in on my phone and thereby pop into the breakout rooms to listen in. This hasn't been working very well since recent updates. This is a needed function for teachers.
