The Streams Collaboration Tool enables users to engage in conversations, or “Streams,” within the Synergy Education Platform. Streams are easy-to-use discussion flows with an intuitive social media-type interface.

Users can create or participate in public or private group streams, where content can be shared with multiple users at once. They can also engage in one-to-one Streams with just a single other user. Communication is via post, which can include text, documents, web links, and replies to other users’ posts. Built-in search is available to help users find Streams of interest.

To encourage and facilitate home-school collaboration, parents and students can communicate with school staff via the Streams link icon in various ParentVUE^® and StudentVUE^® web portal locations and the Streams tab. This feature is enabled by the school district.
