As we move into week 3 (wow!) of our Flexible Education Program and Remote Learning, you may find a need to better communicate with your students.
Teams has a built-in Meeting option for you to video-conference with students, the entire class, or multiple classes. Here are a few resources to help you get started. If you want to test the Meeting, let me know and I'll be happy to be your guinea pig. 😁
I've had a Team Meeting a couple of times and here are a few things to consider:
- Make sure you change the participants (students) to Attendees, otherwise they will have the ability to mute you and other attendees and take control of the meeting.
- Record the meeting so you can post it for students who were unable to attend.
- END the meeting so students cannot jump on to the call after you leave.
- You can share resources (PowerPoint, Word doc, etc.) with the meeting attendees so have those open and ready to share before you start the meeting. (There's also a Whiteboard option if you need a blank space for writing.)
This is a short video to show you how to set up a meeting and set students to attendees.

Setting up a Meet Now from the channel posts is awesome but it does not let you set Meeting options. To do that, instead use Schedule Meeting when setting up...

This one is a little long but they discuss Teams Meetings at the beginning so you don't have to watch the entire video.
This one shows you how to use the Meet Now option to give (almost) immediate feedback to student questions.

Is a student confused about the directions on an assignment? Click on the activities bell to see students commenting on assignments. Think a video chat would help? Click MEET NOW icon right in the reply and start chatting. Use the record options
