	Within Microsoft 365, MS Teams is the central place for digital collaboration. Microsoft Teams enables group chats, joint work on documents, news feeds, video and telephone conferences, online meetings and much more. In addition, a shareable cloud storage space is provided. The platform can be used from various devices such as PCs, laptops, smartphones or tablets. Supported operating systems are Android, iOS, Windows, macOS and Linux. <ref name="mst"> Microsoft Corporation (2021) Microsoft Teams, https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoft-teams/group-chat-software [''retrieved Feb 14th 2021''], Publisher: Microsoft Corporation. </ref>

Furthermore, Teams is widely used by multiple companies and institutions to provide connectivity and communicate across locations such as global or country wide (project) groups or e.g. during home office. Therefore, “the software skyrocketed in popularity during [the COVID pandemic] lockdown, reaching 44 million active users by March and 75 million by April“ <ref name="apps"> David Curry (2021) Microsoft Teams Revenue and Usage Statistics (2021), https://www.businessofapps.com/data/microsoft-teams-statistics/ [''retrieved Feb 14th 2021''], Publisher: Business of Apps. </ref>.

	At the centre of the various functions of Microsoft Teams are groups - the so-called teams.

For example, members of a department, a project or a learning community can be gathered in a team. <ref name="mst"> Microsoft Corporation (2021) Microsoft Teams, https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoft-teams/group-chat-software [''retrieved Feb 14th 2021''], Publisher: Microsoft Corporation. </ref>

	~~__TOC__~~


	~~== Tools ==~~

	~~MS Teams is providing many different tools. The main tools are explained in this part known and used by the major part of the users.~~

	~~[[File:apps.png\|500px\|thumb\|right\|alt text\|Figure 1: Screenshot of examples of apps in Microsoft Teams ]]~~

	~~==== Teams (or Groups) ====~~
	In Microsoft Teams, groups - called Teams - can be created to which people inside or outside the company or project can be invited. One or more channels are available in a team. Each channel consists of tabs. By default, there are the tabs Contributions and Files. The location for files in the Files tab is the organisation's SharePoint Online. Additional tabs of different purposes or apps for further functions can be added.

	~~==== Messaging ====~~
	Within a team, selected members can set up channels. Channels are conversation topics that allow team members to communicate without using (broadcast) email or another additional app or software. In addition to classic text messages, members can also reply to posts with images, videos, GIFs (, ...). Direct messages allow members to send private messages to one or more people. Direct messaging is useful when a message is not relevant to all members of a channel or team or is particularly confidential. Additionally, MS Teams gives you an embedded translator in chats and channels to communicate in 35 languages. <ref name="teamwork"> Microsoft Corporation (2021) Microsoft Teams, https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoft-teams/collaboration [''retrieved Feb 14th 2021''], Publisher: Microsoft Corporation. </ref>

	~~==== Calling ====~~
	MS Teams is replacing the conventional telephone call. Providing a contact list of the own organisation, company or institution it offers the instand privat calling with one or more people. As mentioned, by having the right package MS Teams is literals replacing conventional calls - which is called Voice over IP (VoIP) - by using the public telephone network. Furthermore, MS Teams is offering video conferencing. It supports conferencing on the public switched telephone network, which allows users to call numbers from the client or dial in to a conference using a Microsoft-provided number and specifying the conference ID.

	~~==== Meeting ====~~
	Meetings can be scheduled or created ad-hoc. Members of the channel can see that a meeting is currently running as well as participate in it. MS Teams also has a plugin for Microsoft Outlook to invite others to a team meeting. Meetings can be recorded and later made available to other users on Microsoft Stream.

	~~==== Teams for Education ====~~
	Teams for Education allows administrators and teachers to set up special teams for classes, professional learning communities or staff. Teachers are able to provide feedback and assess student assignments assigned through Teams via a special tab available to Office 365 for Education subscribers. Through Office Forms integration, assignments can also be assigned to students or pupils.

	~~==== other Apps ====~~
	Apps in Microsoft Teams integrate various aspects of other Office 365 tools into Microsoft Teams, improving the user experience. Apps make it much easier to avoid leaving Teams to complete tasks on other platforms or tools. With an app like "Polly", for example, surveys can be created in Teams channels. In addition, "Microsoft Planner", for example, is a project management app that can be integrated directly into Teams. As with many others, the added value is that these tools can be used much more easily without having to leave the Teams user interface to do so.


	~~== Project Management ==~~
