Sažetak
The COVID‒19 pandemics has rendered online, distant, or e‐learning almost mandatory, which has directed the tertiary‐ level instructors toward the usage of a variety of applications necessary to conduct and to participate in the courses delivered in an online learning and teaching setting. In an aspiration to comprehend the effects of using Microsoft Teams meetings as a teaching aid when assigning English as a Foreign Language (EFL) course exercises at the University of Slavonski Brod in light of a learner – instructor (lecturer) – interface interaction more profoundly, the author has conducted a pilot research, aiming to define a premise on which to base further investigation. Findings of the research suggest that an informal EFL practicum setting was established thanks to the Microsoft Teams application’s chat options, that students’ reluctance to use the webcams was deliberate, and point at the improvement of learning conditions from instructors’ point of view.
