Channels

Every class team comes with a General channel.

Channels organize all the files, conversations, and apps for a topic in one place. Channels can be created for group work, topics, units, and more.

Every channel has tabs. The General channel has these tabs:

• The Posts tab for all the messages in this channel.
• The Files tab to store all the files shared in this channel.
• The Class Notebook tab.
• The Assignments tab for creating assignments.
• The Grades tab for tracking student progress and grading
