Hi Bayta! Great blog post! I didn’t know about Microsoft Teams at all prior to this semester and I am truly impressed with the potential it has in the classroom. In a world that is increasingly becoming so technology based, where people are both working and learning from home, Microsoft Teams definitely provides a way to communicate effectively while at home.
