title	Channels

Info

Channels are dedicated sections within a team to keep conversations organized by specific topics, projects, etc.

You can create private channels which can be used to limit conversations to a subset of people within a team. For example:

Creating a separate work space for a group or project (e.g. a private channel for IT staff within your department's team)
Creating a separate chat space for users to discuss sensitive information (e.g. budgeting)

In order to create Channels within the team you must be assigned as one of the "owners" of the team

title	Virtual Meetings

Info
Team Meetings do not require you to have a microphone or webcam but it would be beneficial. If you do not have a microphone or webcam you can use the chat in the meeting to communicate.

There are a few methods to start meetings:

Method 1:

When you are in “Posts” in your channel, beneath the text box to chat there is a “Meet Now” option (video camera icon)
Click it and it will ask you to enter in a subject, whether you want your video on or off, and the option to either Meet Now or Schedule a Meeting
This meeting will only be with the members of the channel. Members will see a video icon beside the channel showing that a meeting is going on, they will also get a message of the meeting post and can easily join. You can also @mention the channel or people in the chat to get them to see it as well.
If you decide to schedule the meeting instead it will open a meeting details window where you can enter in the information for the meeting (similar to Outlook calendar meetings)
Then it will send out an invitation through Outlook where the invitees can click Join Meeting
You can also create Teams meeting when creating a new meeting in Outlook:
