As a component of Office 365, Microsoft Teams lets you share and edit files in a single secure location; and with features like chats and video conferencing, everyone has the right tools to stay connected no matter where they are. At 麻豆社, we offer two types of Microsoft Teams: a General and a Class Teams.

General Teams are geared for business or departmental collaborations and projects and are ideal for faculty, staff, and registered student organizations. Owners can add members, create private channels, schedule meetings, and so much more.

Submit a request for a General Team at . You will be notified once your Team has been created.

NOTE: General Teams are not available for individual students. See Class Teams.

Class Teams are uniquely created to foster collaboration in academic classes between students and teachers. Although it has many of the same features as a General Team, it includes teaching and learning tools such as a Class Notebook, Assignments, and Grades.

A Class Team is created automatically for each academic class based on the following setup:

  • Team’s Name/Title: The name of the class (ex: ACED2400A-SP2020)
  • Team’s Owner: The assigned faculty/instructor
  • Team’s Members: All registered students in the class at the time of setup. *Throughout the term, faculty will need to manually add/remove student members in accordance to add/drop/withdraw records.*

Faculty: You will receive a Microsoft invitation letting you know that your Class Team has been created. You can then log in and when ready, click the Activate button on the top of the screen. Students will then receive notification. Each academic Microsoft Teams Class is accessible for approximately 90 days in read-only mode after the last day of finals.
