-===Using Teams and Canvas Together===
+====Enable the Teams Sync in Canvas ====
-====Benefits====
-*Integrates with Canvas.
-*Much easier managing access to documents than via OneDrive.
-*Student collaboration – create a channel for student groups.
-*Create a private channel for you and your teaching partner for course development and easy file sharing.
-*Individual and group chat to create online community.
-*The mobile app replaces the need to share personal cell numbers for texting.
-* Data security and risk management: M365 is our official supported platform. Use M365 instead of Slack or Google.
-−
-====Communication====
-*A common strategy is to use Team posts for faculty and students to share news and announcements.
-*Teams chat connects students to faculty and each other in a secure, college-supported application.
-*Encourage students to get the Teams mobile app.
-−
-====Collaboration and File Sharing====
-*Uploading files to the Team will make those files available to all class members and will be stored in the Team's collective SharePoint library. This is easier than using the Office365 Canvas integration which connects to the faculty's personal OneDrive.
-*Create channels based on topics or workgroups to create easy file/application sharing and collaboration.
-*If needed, up to 20 private channels can be created with assigned membership.
-**Private channels have limitations so when in doubt, don't make it private.
