I'm a teacher & need to see videos of all students. But they should only see my video, not each other's.

Question

Hello,

I am a teacher and use Microsoft Teams to conduct classes. I have an average of 30 students. I want to be able to see the videos of each student, but I want to be the only one able to see their videos. Students should not be able to see videos of each other. Students should only be able to see my video.

Could you please help me on how this can be possible?

Hi AhmadRashid-8680!

I am afraid to tell you that your idea is not available in Microsoft Teams.

To my knowledge, you can only control who can turn on the video in the meeting and who cannot by assigning meeting policy to each user. For more details, you can refer to:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/meeting-policies-in-teams#allow-ip-video

If the above cannot meet your requirements, we recommend you that please give a feedback to Teams UserVoice(Link: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40623253-teacher-to-view-video-feeds-of-at-least-20-student). Microsoft will always focus on customer’s feedback and experience. Some new features would be added to the services based on customers' feedback in the future, and your good ideas will be very helpful for them to improve the service.
