Encouraging Student Collaboration with Content Sharing in Teams

Allowing students to share content during a Microsoft Teams meeting fosters collaboration and engagement, making discussions more dynamic and interactive. By enabling students to present their own materials—such as slides, videos, or live demonstrations—you empower them to take an active role in their learning journey. This feature is particularly useful for group projects, peer teaching, and brainstorming sessions. To ensure smooth sharing, you can adjust meeting settings to grant students presenter permissions. This flexibility in Teams supports a more inclusive and participatory classroom environment. Allowing students to share content is very similar to the guest speaker sharing content.

Follow these steps:

Click the People tab at the top of the meeting.
Click the student's name and then the ellipse (...) menu,
Select Make a presenter.
Click Change.
Now the student can share their content.
