MS Teams – Online Video Conferencing Platform
Microsoft Teams is a real-time video and audio conferencing tool that lets you add files, share applications, and use a virtual whiteboard to interact.
There are two methods for creating an online session in Blackboard:
Option 1: Use the existing Microsoft Teams integration with Blackboard to create a meeting link, which can be embedded directly into your course content.
Option 2: Use Teams Classes for enhanced student collaboration, while also providing the ability to create a meeting link.
The diagram below outlines the key differences between these two types of Teams meetings.
Instructors may use any of the options to run online lectures. To help you set up, please follow the specific guide from the options below.
- Option 1 – Basic Teams integration with Blackboard
- Option 2 – Deep Teams Classes integration with Blackboard
