Microsoft Teams can be used for office hours. However, unlike Zoom, we do not have a persistent default link we can send to students. Instead, we have a few different options to us:
- Create a recurring Teams link (and change some Meeting Settings for extra privacy)
- Create a Microsoft Teams Team
- Use Microsoft Bookings (Recommended)
- Use EAB Navigate 360
It is a few extra steps, but setting up Microsoft Teams appropriately can make Office Hours a breeze. For more details, see the Microsoft Teams: Using Teams for Office Hours Wiki page. Additional tutorials for Microsoft Office, Including Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Bookings, can be found on the Microsoft Office Support Wiki page. For help with Navigate 360, see the EAB Navigate 360 Wiki page.
