Benefits of Teams Assignments integration for Teams and LMS

Completed

Microsoft Teams assignments make many Microsoft tools and learning activities available to educators and learners. Educators can create and manage Teams assignments and grades from inside learning management systems (LMSs) using the Microsoft Teams Assignments LTI® app. This integration gives educators and learners access to Teams features and activities without leaving the LMS for a seamless and cohesive experience. Collaborate on files and projects, communicate securely with supervised messaging, develop social skills, and address learning barriers with accessible and modified content—all within your LMS.

Teams assignments include:

  • Learning Accelerators: Reading Progress, Math Progress, Search Progress, and Speaker Progress
  • Multi-document submissions
  • Microsoft Forms
  • OneNote pages
  • Whiteboard
  • MakeCode
  • And more!

Before educators can start using the Assignments LTI integration, the LMS administrator must install the Teams Assignments LTI app and determine the method for connecting class teams to LMS courses. Educators can then connect their Microsoft class teams to their LMS courses, unless the courses are automatically connected using the method IT admins choose when they set up the LTI integration.
