If you are working on your assignments tonight and want to get started on Teams I have two videos that I hope will help you with the basics of creating your class and adding assignments. For now, you can find those videos here: http://bit.ly/2wgemqf - I will update this tutorial with more videos later. If you have trouble with the PowerPoint, you can access the videos here:
A couple of notes:
- Last year, I created classes for each period, but this year I created one class for each prep. I prefer this method but either way works and has pros and cons.
- There is not an easy way to add multiple students but you CAN create a Join Code for your class that you can share with students. I prefer to add the students so I know that they are part of the class but I understand this is time-consuming.
- I have had trouble with students who have Macs but it is not impossible - just wanted to give you a heads up.
- When students submit documents for an assignment they cannot have any special characters like #!@*, etc. If the document file name has one of these special characters, students will not get an error message to tell them the problem. It just doesn't work.
- Phones work but the formatting can get wonky.
Tomorrow, I will have hands-on training in my classroom throughout the day. I'm still working on a schedule and will get that to you ASAP.
Thank you! We'll figure this out together as we go!
