Here's what the stream section looks like in the ProProfs Online Classroom.

• Trainees never miss any updates from instructors

• Instructors can quickly notify users related to specific or all groups/courses through announcements

  How to Use Stream

Step 1: On your instructor Training Maker account dashboard:

• Go to ‘Classroom.’

• Select a classroom to view as a learner. 

• Select a learner from the list and hit the ‘Preview’ button.

Step 2: Go to ‘Stream.’ 

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.

 How to Use Announcements

Step 1: Go to More > Announcements.

Step 2: Fill in the information you wish to send out. Select the target users:

• Select the group(s) to which you want to show the announcement

• Select the course(s) in which trainees are enrolled if you’re going to keep it more specific.

Step 3: Choose to send the information right away, save it as a draft for the future, or schedule it for a later date & time.

When scheduling, you can even set the frequency of the announcement.

Once posted, your announcement will reach the target users, and they can view it in their ‘Stream’ section.

That is all about Stream & Announcements features in the Training Maker.
