Canvas and Microsoft Teams for Education can work together to improve classroom workflow for school administrators and educators. Canvas is the basis for classroom management, while Microsoft Teams offers tools for real time collaboration, video conferencing, and syncronous experiences. These tools help to simplify communication, boost collaboration, increase productivity, strengthen connections, and provide accessibility options and wellbeing checks to support all learners.
Educators and faculty can connect their courses in Canvas with Microsoft Teams using the Class Teams LTI app. This app allows educators and faculty to create and access Teams meetings and meeting agenda view from within Canvas.
Educators can create an online assignment with the One Drive LTI app. This file is embedded and can be modified and submitted by learners. Educators can assign and grade word, excel and powerpoint file types with Canvas SpeedGrader.
OneNote class notebooks, learning accelerators, automatic grade synching and more are all available through Microsoft Teams for Education. Wellbeing check-ins with learners can be done using the Microsoft Reflect LTI app.
All of this and more can be accessed from desktop, app, and mobile app.
