 Watch this short introduction to Microsoft Teams Why Microsoft Teams?
At Tū Arotake 2020 we touched on flexible working, the experiences that came from theCOVID lockdown, and ‘a new way or working’. Our new hub, Microsoft Teams supports and captures all the resources required for collaboration and communication on campus and off-site. It brings together chat, meetings, calling, file sharing and storage, all in one place, and even better; improved call and video meeting quality beyond Skype.
Microsoft Teams will provide us with on-going upgrades and new features, all within your Teams hub.
How do I install Teams?
You may follow these steps to get the Teams application installed and working:
Here are some of the benefits of Microsoft Teams:
- Everything will be in one place, within Office 365, with access to all your Office apps, contacts, chat, calendar and the same easy online meeting set-up
- You’ll have your own Microsoft Teams ‘channel’ and the ability to create further channels for specific topics or projects (which will also allow you to limit access to just those involved)
- Ability to collaborate in ‘real time’ so documents can be securely edited by more than one person, at one time
- Improved data security
