A Section Feed is the collection of communications for a section. The feed consists of posts and their replies. Teachers can create posts and replies; students' communication options depend on the Section Feed Settings but may include posting, replying, and uploading attachments.
To view a section's feed, click the speech bubbles icon in the Teaching Center. A Section Feed side panel displays.
The Section Feed allows a teacher to communicate with students and parents in a class. There are no specific tool rights needed for teachers to access Section Feeds. The tool is either turned on for a district or not. For administrators, the Section Feed Administration tool rights in Instruction > Settings grants full access to that tool.
See the Instruction Tool Rights article for more information.
