MS Teams
Main Content
SIU is a Microsoft campus; therefore, we encourage our academic community to integrate Microsoft tools into their instructional and learning practices. This reduces costs to students and provides better support to learners. Microsoft Teams stands out as an especially valuable tool with a myriad of functions and features designed to meet the unique needs of educators and learners in today's hybrid world.
