The Remote - Containers extension in the Remote Development extension pack allows you to open any folder mounted into or inside a dev container and take advantage of VS Code's full development feature set.27KViews1like1CommentClass Teams vs "Normal" Teams
Hi everyone, I work at a large educational institution which have rolled out Teams for staff. We're looking at whether Class Teams would work for us too. Is it right that the essential difference between the normal/global Teams for staff, and a Class Teams deployment, is one of permissions and how those permissions for faculty and students are managed? Basically, I guess my question is, "What is the advantage of us deploying Class Teams over creating a normal staff Team with students as members?". We're an HE institution, so not an issue with minors, and we have a robust electronic assessment system so we wouldn't use the assignment feature for summative assessment. Does a deployment of Class Teams give any significant advantage over the Staff set up we already have? Any thoughts very welcome 🙂Solved11KViews0likes2CommentsTurn off Assignment notifications for teachers
We have made one team per class of students with teachers as owners of the team, as per our country's policy. Problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to set it so that Teachers don't get pinged every time some assingment is given to all of the pupils. It seems that the ping comes from the program automatically pinging the whole team which is bad. This also means we can't just turn off in notifications this type of event, because most still want to get notifications when a person mentions them, rather than a headless program. So is there a way for teachers on android and ios phones not to be notified about assignments that other teachers make?5.9KViews3likes6CommentsSave Time and Automate Your Workflows with These Shortcuts for Educators

Hi Great news about the ability to add permissions to collaboration spaces in class notebook: https://blogs.office.com/2017/04/19/onenote-class-notebook-updates-include-read-only-parent-or-guardian-access-and-collaboration-space-permissions/ One snag I have found is that I cannot use the method shown in the video for class notebooks that I have created in Classroom, as they are not saved in OneDrive. The option to change these settings do not exist when I try to manage the class notebook in Classroom itself. I am worried this problem will reoccur when class notebook is added to Teams, so hopefully somebody can shed light on this. Thanks3.5KViews0likes6Comments
