Meeting Roles and Safety on Teams

Modified on: Tue, 26 Oct 2021 8:22 AM

Tips and settings to make remote learning safer. 

Use this list of best practices to add security to virtual class meetings. 
  1. Schedule your meeting in a channel.

  2. Create a virtual lobby for students.

  3. Assign the meeting roles (i.e Presenter v Attendee).

  4. Always end the meeting for your entire class.

  5. Make sure you and your students are using the latest version of Teams

  6. Assign meeting roles and choose additional safety settings before class.

Go to the Calendar. Select your meeting and choose Edit.

Note: You can edit all meetings in a series or just one meeting.

 Make the following choices: 

  1. Who can bypass the lobby? Choose Only me. This creates a virtual lobby where students wait for you to admit them.

  2. Always let callers bypass the lobby. Choose No so students joining from a mobile device also wait in the virtual lobby.

  3. Announce when callers join or leave. Choose Yes to get a notification when students join and leave class on any device.

  4. Who can present? Choose Only me

    Note: Presenters have capabilities that attendees do not have. 

  5. Allow attendees to unmute. Choose No

    Note: You can change this setting and manage student microphones during class. 

  6. Click Save

    Tip: Check these settings before each class. If you need to adjust them during your meeting, choose More actions > Meeting options. Don't forget to save your changes. 


When class is over, always close the meeting space so students can't continue without you. 

  1. Click the arrow on the Leave button.

  2. Select End meeting.

  3. Choose End.
