Description

The increasing trend in education involves teachers and students utilizing various online tools and learning management systems (LMS) like Google Workspace, Moodle, Canvas, and Blackboard. Among these, Microsoft's LMS offering is worth considering. This presentation highlights how Microsoft Teams is user-friendly and straightforward for educators to set up and use in their classrooms without needing extra help. Microsoft Teams stands out as it operates effectively right after installation without the need for any additional plug-ins or customizations. It includes widely-used software like the Microsoft Office suite, which is prevalent in many businesses, thus providing students with practical, real-world experience both during their studies and beyond. This presentation not only sheds light on the digital learning platforms prevalent in higher education, particularly focusing on Microsoft Teams as an LMS but also provides valuable recommendations and insights on how to optimize Microsoft Teams for Education. This aims to enhance the learning experience in both academic and professional settings.
