Today you’ll learn about Slack. Please watch this video.

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform to work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information you need to do team work best.

Thousands of leading companies  –Pinterest, Shopify, AirBnB– use Slack to streamline work, making teams stronger and more productive. But lately, it’s been finding its way in the classroom too.

You all should have a Slack account. Let’s take a minute to post one of our favorite songs on the all-hands channel.
