Microsoft
Teams is integrated into the MyFIRE learning platform for convenient access to
scheduled meetings for both professors and students. This tutorial demonstrates
how a professor can join a scheduled Microsoft Teams meeting session directly
in a course within MyFIRE.
1. Navigate
to the location where the MS Teams meeting has been provided. It could
be listed in an announcement, a calendar event, an email, or a discussion post.
Select the meeting link listed in blue.
a. Announcements:
b. Calendar:
c. Discussions:
d. Email:
2. A
new browser tab will open and a pop-up message will appear at the top of the
page. Select cancel.
3. Then
choose your preferred option for opening a MS Teams meeting. Options include:
download Teams to your computer, continue on the browser, or open teams (if
Teams is already downloaded). ID&T recommends selecting continue on this
browser.
4. The
page will refresh. The speed of the refresh process will depend on your
internet speed. If you are utilizing a hotspot or wifi connection, your
internet connection may be slower. Please allow a few moments for the page
to fully load. Note: The Microsoft Teams meeting page will not
allow anyone in the meeting until the scheduled start time.
5. Once
the MS Teams meeting page opens, review and select your audio and video
settings. If needed, select custom setup for further options.
6. Then
select join now. Once again, depending on your internet speed and
connection, the page may take a few moments to load.
