Viewing the Stream and People Tabs

The Stream Tab is where teachers can share an announcement or send their students reminders. They can also attach materials to enrich the lesson. Once students are added to the class, teachers can conduct their class online or use Google Classroom's mobile app for in-class learning. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use the Stream and People Tabs.

Using the Stream Tab

From the Stream Tab at the bottom of your screen, you can share information with their class by posting to the Stream.
