Digital learning environment at ISLO

The stu­dy-rela­ted applica­tions used by ISLO have been selec­ted accor­ding to the “less is more” principle. In other words, we have inves­ted in qua­li­ty ins­tead of quan­ti­ty by care­ful­ly con­si­de­ring which are the most essen­tial applica­tions in terms of stu­dying. Eve­ryt­hing starts with the M365 cre­den­tials men­tio­ned abo­ve, but after that, the most impor­tant applica­tion nee­ded for stu­dies is defi­ni­te­ly Mic­ro­soft TEAMS. If you are not fami­liar with using the applica­tion, you can con­tact ISLO’s digi­tal sup­port, or alter­na­ti­ve­ly, do self-stu­dy, which is popu­lar the­se days, for example from this video (in English, 10 min) TEAMS tuto­rial in 10 minutes

Other key applica­tions are applica­tions from the Mic­ro­soft Office pro­duct fami­ly, such as Word, Office and Excel. You can use them for free as long as you are a stu­dent at ISLO. You can use the applica­tions as onli­ne ver­sions or down­load the applica­tions to your phone/computer from the Office home page.
