- The teacher gets started at https://translator.microsoft.com/ selects "Start Conversation". This generates a QR code and a simple 5 letter code.

I think anyone can see how powerful this could be for students wanting to review instruction given in the classroom. Teachers don't need this on the whole time and can choose when the transcript is available - perhaps for key important instructions.
