I guess my main questions right now relate to using mixed reality to make learning more accessible to students with special needs and help increase achievement of their IEP goals. How is this currently being done, and what goals can we shoot for in the future? Is there a DevOps crew devoted to this specific topic already? If so, can I join? 🙂
I also wanted to just introduce myself quickly. You can read my full story in my profile if you're really bored and need to kill some time, but in a nutshell:
Thanks for reading and thanks again for the warm welcome. I'm so looking forward to what we can accomplish through collaboration in this community!

@MikeTholfsen Hi - I like the new arrangement in Teams panel listing OneNote, Assignments, Grades, Insights (although) I do not need frequent access to the last two. BUT
When setting up my class onenotes this year, I choose to have channels create new sections in CONTENT LIBRARY and have these pages unchangeable by students. By rearranging the pages, especially the top page in a channel section, I could create a default channel home page.
Today, checking the new arrangements, I find that the Content Library pages, previously created in channels can only be viewed in the whole OneNote link - not necessarily a bad thing - but now linking on notes in a channel defaults to COLLABORATION SPACES sections. This has messed up my previously set up channel onenote pages. 😢

Hi @MikeTholfsen I'm probably not in the right spot but where can I ask a question for the next "What's new in EDU" stream? And where can I find out when it will happen?
I have an urgent question. Embeding Stream on Sharepoint videos in OneNote doesn't work and Upload to the classic version of Stream has been disabled. Is Microsoft aware of this issue? Is it being worked on? I'm teaching in a mixed classroom and my teaching and my students are heavily reliant on the Videos I create and provide for them. Now that the videos are no longer embedded I'm forced to look for a different solution but I would like to keep using Stream bc of the "company access only" option.
It is a problem for a lot of educators and I can't find an official statement from Microsoft on this anywhere. What's going on?

Hi Educator2019. Your question interested me and so I dug a bit deeper in what is available to us. Check out item number 2 at this link: 30 updates for Microsoft 365 Education | August 2023 - Microsoft Community Hub
Essentially it says that they are aware and will be adding the feature you need soon.

Thanks for your msg. Yeah Mike got back to me and they added it to the Tracker and it made it into the blogpost you mentioned. It's in the 2309 Version of OneNote and making it's way into the live version soon. Very happy with how fast they got on top of this.

@MikeTholfsen Hello! I'm a university writing instructor and I've been using Teams for education since fall 2020 with great success.
I have two questions that I've been unable to find answers for: what does the "Bookmarked filters" tool do in Grades view? And, is it possible to set up a filtered view in Grades? For example, I've merged two course sections together in one Teams class but would like to sometimes view their posted grades as separate classes. Do tags or filters work in this part of Teams?
Thank you! Sheri

@Sheri_B The bookmarks are a quick way for you to create saved filters and setup default views for you in the Gradebook. Let;s say you want to always filter to last 2 months or only want to show Homework Assignments, you can set the filter , and once it has been created , you can create a bookmark so you have default filter each time you open the Grades app
Right now the Bookmarks works for Dates, Grading Categories and Hide/Show Inactive Assignments.
