Meetings in Teams

Meetings in Teams include audio, video, and screen sharing. They are one of the key ways to collaborate in Teams and can be used to facilitate sharing between staff, with groups of learners or whole classes who can join at the same time to collaborate.

There are a number of ways to organise, join and manage Teams meetings in Glow.

Features of Teams Meetings in Glow #

  • Staff and learners can enable audio and video in meetings
  • External meeting participants may not join meetings hosted within Glow
  • Glow accounts can join externally hosted Teams meetings (depending on the host tenancy’s settings)
