Meetings in Teams include audio, video, and screen sharing. They're one of the key ways to collaborate in Teams. And you don’t need to be a member of an organization (or even have a Teams account!) to join a Teams meeting. You can even record Team meetings for those who could not connect!
If you are using the VLE to manage your class, your best option for video conferencing is to use the Microsoft Teams widget on the VLE main homepage to quickly create meetings. Set up meetings in advance, provide the links in your course, and then receive a link to the recording to your school board email (if you record the meeting). You do not need to set up your students on a team in the application to use this option. For more information on this option, email kim.wagner@dsb1.ca.
