Summary


This chapter provided you with a foundation to post on the class Stream. While we only discussed the Announcement post, many of the features found in the Announcement post, such as attaching files, links, and YouTube videos, is available for all the other post types. As you continue to use Google Classroom, the Stream will become a central location for you and your students to view most announcements, assignments, and discussions, which saves time in organization and assessment.

You are now able to create an Announcement post in Google Classroom, attach resources to the post, and reuse posts in other classes. In addition, you can comment on posts and manage student comments by deleting individual comments, muting students, or disabling the comment feature entirely.

For situations where you disable comments, or as another means of interacting with your students, the next chapter will discuss the additional features found in the Question post type.
