This is wonderful overview and list of useful tips. Is there a way (free app?) to integrate a shared calendar within a Team to offer a variety of scheduled events/training opportunities for faculty to choose from for a new faculty FYE?

[@ClassPoint]

Hi Sharon! You can try adding in a shared calendar for a channel in Teams. You could create a channel specifically for the training and events and at the top, click the plus, and search for "calendar" I would suggest using the purple Channel Calendar one from Microsoft that allows you to share the calendar. Check out this article for more info: www.jumpto365.com/blog/an-intro-to-channel-calendars-in-microsoft-teams Otherwise, you can try creating a calendar with Sharepoint!

Hi Sara , very informative , I am using teams through browser , how to use noise suppression option .Kindly let me know in this regard .Thank you

[@ClassPoint]

Hi Ravi! I think that this feature is only for the desktop app. You can check out the Notes on this page: support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/reduce-background-noise-in-teams-meetings-1a9c6819-137d-4b3b-a1c8-4ab20b234c0d

Hi...Thank you for sharing this video. It's really helpful. I have a question that you might be able to help....I want to diable the chat during the meeting, how can I do that. Thank you in advance.

[@ClassPoint]

Hi Yunny, we go over how to do this at 1:59 in this video! :)

[@yunnyzhang8029]

@@ClassPoint Thank you for your response, but my problem is I was having a meeting with a guest speaker and the students were chatting during the session, how can I disable the chat. Thank you.

[@ClassPoint]

@@yunnyzhang8029 Hi Yunny, during your meeting you can also go to the 3 dots for more options, click on the Meeting Options, and there should be an Allow Meeting Chat option that you can enable/disable

Hi Sara thank you, very nice video.I want to ask a question. The breakout room icon appears only on the person who crated the meeting. Can we make an assign another person for this

[@ClassPoint]

Hi there! You must be a meeting organizer to start the breakout rooms. In Teams there can only be one meeting organizer - hopefully that can be changed in the future!

If teachers want to give the students a test the problems/questions are the same right?

Is it basically Zoom?

[@ClassPoint]

Hi Andrew! Microsft Teams is very similar to Zoom but with added features and connections to other Microsoft apps.

[@fwangwenbamun2627]
