Information on Google and Microsoft Tools for remote teaching – Contingency planning in the event of Covid-19 closures
Dear Senior Leader,
In light of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) the Digital Skills Partnership have collated information from Google and Microsoft to help schools/ colleges / Universities with their contingency planning for remote teaching in the event of closures.
- Google Hangouts Meet and Google Classroom
- Microsoft Teams
If your establishment already has O365, Microsoft encourage you to:
- Review getting started with Microsoft Teams for remote learning documentation
- Attend the upcoming Teams webinar on remote learning
If you do not have O365 and would like to begin leveraging a Microsoft remote learning solution:
- Get Office 365 for free: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/education/products/office
- Review the Office 365 Education Set Up Guide as well as the Getting started with Office 365 and Windows 10 Educator Course
