MS Teams Meetings provide the best option to meet synchronously with your students. You can leverage Office Hours in MS Teams with groups of students and record and archive the meeting for those who cannot attend.

Scheduling Tools

Use Bookings in MS Teams to streamline setting up group meetings or one-on-ones with students. There are several benefits to using Bookings:

• Gives students the ability to schedule available times on your Outlook calendar.
• Seamless with MS Teams because they are both Microsoft products.
• Easy to schedule impromptu meetings. (Contact OTL Support Services for help with set up.)
• Can add to Canvas left navigation, the Syllabus, and the Course Schedule page (if used regularly).
• Easy to add a low stakes assignments to create an appointment (for practice).

Canvas Scheduler is best for specifying time slots (within the Canvas Calendar ONLY) for students to schedule. You simply allocate time slots in your Canvas calendar that students can sign up for. Students go to the Canvas calendar to select a time slot.
