Today • This will be an introduction to Lync • Objectives: • Successfully log-on to Lync and establish an audio/video connection with other members of a meeting. • Identify appropriate use of Lync for professional development and/or as a teaching tool.
The Basics Let’s Take a Look… • Instant Messaging (IM) • Audio and Video Calls • Online Meetings • Availability (presence) information • Sharing capabilities
Digital Citizenship Reminders • Chat History is saved, and missed messages can be emailed to you automatically if you use the Outlook desktop client. • Presence – Own it & Observe it. Don't let it own you. Set your presence when you are working on something. Also make sure to check the presence of others before calling them or reaching out to them. • IM (instant message) before video calling someone. Make sure the person you are wanting to talk with is OK to talk (don't just barge in to their space) • Think about your actions - not the technology being used. (Ask yourself: would I do it/ or say it Face to Face?) From Kentucky Department of Education, 2013
