How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

Assignment per channel

Is it possible to make an assignment per channel. Instead of make an assignment on the General channel.
We want to use a team as class. The channels are the subjects and in each "subject channel" we want to make an seperate subject assignment

    I'm an Elementary teacher that teaches two different subjects and would like to assign assignments to either subject in the specified channel.. not just the general. This would keep it organized and help them find the subject/assignment quicker!

    Come one Microsoft! We would like to have one team for a course, and classes as channels where you can post an assignment to a private channel in a team! Also you can invite email groups to meetings but not create assignments for email groups. This would also save time!!

    Any progress on this?

    I would love to have the assignment tab in TEAMS. I'm working as an educator in a government institution. Our internal academy supports all employees (18000); but since we are not recognized as a school, I do'nt have access to Teams for education. I really need to have the same functionality that assignments provide in the business tenant version. Once I'd have that, I agree with everyone here that it should be possible to assign within the channel.

    Absolutely needed for my courses. Forcing a specific philosophy from MS not allow this is limiting. Not all teams, courses and institutions are alike. Degrees of freedom needed to allow. flexibility and forcing one way of thinking is a bit narrow-minded I think.

    This is what we require to avoid creating too many teams a change that Microsoft needs to make. It will make teams work a lot more effectively for teachers.

    When will this change be implemented?

    Please Microsoft! Our faculty is literally thinking of switching to Google Classrooms, halfway through lock-down, because they are frustrated with constantly having to copy/paste random assignment links into their various work groups/channels.

    This option would be super helpful, especially for students that require accommodated versions of assignments not made available to the rest of the class.
