COVID Update: MS Teams – Usage

Like almost all North American schools (and many around the world), we’ve had to switch the way we teach and learn due to the Covid-19 pandemic. That means significant increases in the use of technology, and in demand for support around those technologies. In a series of posts, we will be sharing some visualizations of those changes.

In this post we feature visualizations that show the increase in activities using Microsoft’s Teams service over the last week or so.
