Module 1: Introduction to Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is a unified communications and collaboration platform that combines chat, meetings, file sharing, and application integration in a single, cloud-based workspace. It is designed to help teams of all sizes work together more effectively, regardless of their location.

Teams is a central hub for teamwork, with everything you need to collaborate in one place. You can chat with team members, hold video calls, share files, and work on documents together. Teams also integrates with other Microsoft apps, such as Office 365 and Outlook, so you can access all your work in one place.

Some important features of Microsoft Teams are:

• Chat: Teams provides a persistent chat experience that allows you to have ongoing conversations with team members. You can also create channels for specific topics or projects, and use them to collaborate on work.

• Meetings: Teams makes it easy to hold video meetings with team members, both inside and outside your organization. You can share your screen, record meetings, and even add live captions.

• File sharing: Teams makes it easy to share files with team members. You can upload files to the team's shared workspace, or share them directly in a chat conversation.
