WHAT IS MICROSOFT TEAMS?

Microsoft Teams is a digital hub that brings conversations, content, and apps together in one place. If your classes are using Teams, you will be able to connect with your teacher/tutors, ask your teacher/tutor questions, work on your homework and projects, and track the work you have coming up in one place.

Note: Some of these features may disabled in Microsoft Teams due to the settings of your college/center. You need your college/center email to log in to Teams.

GETTING STARTED

Make sure you are logged into Microsoft Teams with your college/center email and are all set and connected to your classes. Select Teams from the dashboard to view any class teams you have been added to.

POSTS IN CHANNELS (FOR LEARNER ENGAGEMENT)

Within each of your class teams, you will see channels. All teams have a General channel that is made up of Tabs in the header area.

Other channels are created by your teacher/tutor and may be organised around units, topics, or small group work. Select a class team to view the tabs you share with everyone in your class (not just the people working in the channel).

• The Posts tab is where you will be doing a lot of collaborating with your teacher/tutor.

• Teams conversations are like instant messaging in WhatsApp you make posts, reply to other posts, and @mention your teacher/tutor’s name to get their attention.

• You may be asked to reply to Posts from your teacher/tutor that require you to respond in different ways – this can be as follows:

Respond to a Post

Write a Reply

1. Acknowledge a post by selecting the Thumbs up emoji

2. Select More options (…) to access the Immersive Reader

Select Reply below the message, type your message and hit Send

Digital Learning | Resources 11

Respond to a Poll question

Submit Vote’

Respond to a Reflection

1. Select the emoji from the 5 options presented that best represents how you are feeling

2. From the list of words subsequently displayed, refine your answer by choosing the word that best describes your choice of emoji.

DOCUMENT SHARING AND COLLABORATION

Your teacher/tutor may be uploading resources to the Class Materials folder for you to access. If you open any of the files for your own use, you will be prompted to save a copy of the file to your OneDrive storage. Any files in the Class Materials folder are read-only

Every time a file is shared by your teacher/tutor in a conversation, it automatically gets added to the Files library of that channel. So, even if a channel piles up with different conversations and you can no longer see the file in a conversation, you will know where to go to see that file again. Everyone in your class has access to these files, and any changes made will affect the content for everyone.

ONENOTE CLASS NOTEBOOK

Depending on how your teacher/tutor runs their class, you may be given access to a OneNote Class Notebook. Select Class Notebook from the navigation on the left. Your OneNote Class Notebook will have different sections:

Content Library: Like a textbook with pages, you can read for class.

Collaboration Space: Pages that you can work on with other students. Your teacher/tutor may use this for group work. You can copy pages from the collaboration space to your own space in the Notebook.

Digital Learning | Resources 12
‘

Your own workspace: This workspace is private to you and your teacher/tutor and includes sections that your teacher/tutor has created. Use this space to add pages, notes, and thoughts, or work on assignments that your teacher/tutor distributes directly to you.

• You can also insert a document here for your teacher/tutor to correct.

• OneNote Class Notebook pages don’t act like normal document pages. Each one can go as long or as wide as you need, and you can draw or write on them with a touch screen device, add images, and move things around just by selecting and dragging.

SIMILARITY CHECKER

Microsoft Editor includes a similarity checker, which helps you create original work and reference the work of others. The similarity checker shows you how much content in your document is original, and it makes it easy to insert citations when necessary.

•

• On the Home tab, select Editor.

In the Editor pane, find Similarity, and click or tap Check for similarity to online sources

• When the check is complete, Editor shows you how much of your content matches text that it found online (indicated as a percent), and the number of distinct passages in the document for you to review.

• To review the passages, click or tap Similarities reviewed.

• After a passage has been reviewed, Editor underlines it in green. Clicking or tapping in the passage opens the citation suggestion again, which is helpful if you want to re-read the online source or add a citation to a passage that you previously ignored.

Editor takes you to the first passage, where the text is underlined with a blue broken line. You can choose if you want to insert a citation. A link to the online content lets you judge for yourself whether this is warranted. If you decide not to add a citation/reference, choose Ignore. Otherwise, you can add an intext citation or copy the link to the clipboard.

Digital Learning | Resources 29

INSERTING CITATIONS

• Inserting an in-text citation places the citation immediately following the passage. Depending on the situation, Editor might also surround the passage with quotation marks. If you don't want the quotation marks, just delete them.
