Microsoft Teams and Blackboard

A Class Team has some slight differences in functions and behaviour to standard Teams. See the Quick Start Guide to Microsoft Teams for Education for more information on using this type of Team, including setting up meetings.

Note that information in external guides about adding students will not be applicable to Blackboard Teams – see the guide to managing a Blackboard Team on this page.
