Posting in the Classroom
You are able to contribute to the class not only by working on assignments given out by the teacher, but by interacting with your fellow classmates as well by creating posts and commenting on what your peers have to say.
The Stream is where all student interaction occurs. Here, you can create posts that your teacher and classmates can see and respond to. It's a great way to ask questions if you're having trouble with your classwork, because you don't have to be in class to do it.
