Hybrid learning is the new norm in education. Today, students have access to information and knowledge at their fingertips, so teachers need to provide engaging and effective teaching strategies that combine both online and offline activities. Microsoft Teams has been a game changer for collaboration in the classroom. We are so excited to share about the availability of Microsoft Teams LTI apps in Brightspace LMS.
