The 60,000-foot view of Webex Teams
When a user signs in to Webex Teams they create a “Team”. Team members can be anyone with an email address, from on campus or off. Examples might include all the members of a research project or the students in a particular course.
Once the “Team” is together you need to create a “Space” to work in. This is where you access the available tools, i.e. videoconferencing, messaging, file sharing and whiteboarding. The system comes with a “General Space” to start, and you may never need another. However, Webex Teams provides the ability to create as many other spaces as you want.
Using the example of a “Team” with the students in a course, each “Space” you create could be a class, this way you track each class by itself. Or you could create one “Space” for course work, one for lab’s and maybe another for special project(s).
Webex Sign In
The big take way here is that any of the tools used, less videoconferencing, are automatically tracked. So, the notes taken during a Meeting, any Whiteboards worked on, any Files Shared, or Messages sent, are embedded in the “Space” you created.
Come back 3 weeks or 3 years later, and it’s all still there.
Special note about videoconferencing, it’s not automatically tracked, but you can record any session by pressing the “Record” button.
