If you've already arranged to have a Teams space created for your class (by following these steps Create a Team or contacting CPI at edtech@brocku.ca), the following are some steps to inviting students to a class meeting.

Add Teams to your course's Sakai site (optional)

These steps create a useful launch point to Teams for you and your students from a space with which you might already be comfortable. Some information is available at Add a link to Teams in Sakai.

Be sure you have activated your course Team before setting a course meeting so that the students receive an email notification of the meeting.

Locate your course's Teams space

Teams is available directly to all members of the Brock community via https://teams.microsoft.com/.

Add your meeting to a channel
