There's No 'I' in Teams

Abstract

This short reflection is about community-building in the classroom. It draws on personal experiences of Microsoft Teams from the last twelve months or so, and makes some suggestions for why community-building doesn’t always work as well as desired. I don’t propose hard-and-fast rules or specific ‘do’s’ and ‘dont’s’ but, hopefully, some light food-for-thought and reassurance for tutors who’ve been suffering connection issues whilst teaching online.
