Some great new features now available in Glow with Microsoft Forms! You can now import a quiz into Forms which can save you time on creating quizzes. Why not make it self-marking when you share it with learners?

You can also now set a time limit on a quiz – great for supporting learners who need to work under timed conditions. Thanks @Sarah Clark for sharing this image to show it is found under collect responses.

These great ideas could be used during Scottish Digital Literacy Week 2022 #SDLW22 – what will you do?

Using the new Microsoft Teams Class Homepage

There is now a new feature available in Teams – Co-Organiser.  This is a really helpful feature if you are sharing a class with another teacher and want to organise a meeting together. Some points to note if you have created a Team and made a pupil an owner.

• Students can be added as a co-organiser if they are already an invitee to the meeting.​​
• Students cannot edit the meeting invite itself. All options are unavailable other than Meeting options at the bottom of the invitation. If the student has been added as a co-owner the meeting options will open, if they have not been or have been removed they will receive an error page when trying to open.​​
• If a student is a co-organiser they can admit anonymous and/or external users to the meeting, increasing possibility to have a student and external attendee alone.​​
• If a student is a co-organiser they can open and admit other students to the meeting without the supervision of the meeting organiser resulting in unsupervised learner to learner interaction.​​
• If a student is a co-organiser they can change the bypass lobby settings for the meeting eg. Change from organiser and co-organiser to Everyone. This would enable any invitees to enter the meeting, bypassing the lobby.  ​​
• A student that is an existing co-organiser can add another co-organiser to the list however they cannot invite new attendees to the meeting via the invite and therefore the individual would already have to be invited by the owner.​​
• Teachers could create meetings that are attended and managed solely by students​​
