Activity Stream

The Activity Stream is a new, user focused, feature introduced with the Ultra experience. At first Glance, the activity stream is similar to the classic “Announcements” section, but is much more. Not only do you get the course & school announcements, but you can recieve a number of additional notifications:

• Information about your class grades
• New Calendar events
• Blog, Journal, and Wiki activities.

When you are on your activity stream page, you can choose to temporary filter your view. You can choose to:

• Show All (default option)
• show just Assignments and Tests information.
• or show just Grades and Feedback information

You can also choose to enable/disable certain types of notifications by clicking on the gear in the upper right corner of the Activity Stream page.
