Microsoft Teams for Courses
What is Microsoft Teams?
Microsoft Teams is an online collaboration platform. It enables group members to co-author documents, utilise apps, have both individual and group chats, schedule meetings, as well as use audio or video communication features.
Does my course use Microsoft Teams?
A small number of courses currently piloting Teams as a collaboration tool. The pilot will investigate the effectiveness of Teams to facilitate course level discussions, tutorial active learning activities and small project group teamwork. Your course coordinator will inform you if your course is involved in the pilot.
