Here, you will chronologically see the updates concerning the user’s profile. 

 

Whenever the instructor assigns a new course/assessment to a learner or a group, makes an announcement, or adds any media to the library, it will show up in Stream.

 

Note: The library is a collection of optional courses & curated content, such as videos & articles, that your learners can access.
