With Webex Teams you have the ability to create so called Spaces and Teams. These serve as rooms in which you can chat with others, share files, or work together on virtual whiteboards. Spaces and Teams are very similar to each other and offer the same features, with only minimal exceptions.
A useful separation for teaching could be the usage of a space as a central hub for a certain course, in which the participants can communicate with each other, while teams could be used as groups for the students, where they can collaborate on tasks.
The following explains spaces and their features.
1. To create a new space, click in the bar on the list onto the chat symbol. Next to the search bar a plus symbol will appear. Clicking on it brings up the option to create a new space. You will need to provide a name for the space and you can invite people to join the space from here.
2. You have now created a space. You can find it on the left, where all your spaces and teams are listed. If you click on the space, the chat window appears on the right. The top bar also allows you to switch from messages to a list of the participants of the space, the digital whiteboard and a list of shared media such as pictures and videos, as well as letting you schedule a webex meeting within your space.
3. Furthermore you have several options for message input. For example you can (from left to right) attach a file, make a screenshot, or change your font.
4. Finally, using the settings symbol you can adjust several other settings and features of your space
