Edustream’s e-learning portal extends your classroom beyond four walls. Teachers can build a structured digital resource library, assign online assessments, run fully proctored computer-based tests, and tap into AI-driven analytics that surface which students need extra support — all from the same platform your school already uses for grading and attendance. Students log in from any device, at school or at home, and access everything in one place.
E-Learning is available on the Core plan and above. See Plans & Pricing for a full feature comparison.

​
Uploading Course Materials

The resource library lets teachers organize study materials by subject and class so students always know where to find what they need.

​
Upload a Resource

1

Open the Resource Library

Go to E-Learning → Resource Library and select the Subject and Class you are uploading for.
2

Click Upload Resource

Click the Upload Resource button in the top-right corner.
3

Fill in the Resource Details

Enter a clear title for the resource (for example, Week 3 — Photosynthesis Notes), select the resource type from the dropdown:
  • Document — PDF, Word, or PowerPoint files
  • Video — MP4 or a video link (YouTube, Vimeo, or any direct URL)
  • Image — diagrams, charts, or reference images
  • Link — external websites or interactive resources
4

Upload or Paste the Content

For file uploads, drag and drop the file or click Browse to select it from your device. For video links and external URLs, paste the link into the provided field.
5

Set Visibility

Choose whether the resource is visible to students immediately or saved as a Draft for you to publish later.
6

Save

Click Publish Resource (or Save Draft). The resource appears in the library for all students enrolled in the selected class and subject.
Organize resources into Topics within each subject to keep the library tidy as the term progresses. You can create a new topic from the library sidebar by clicking Add Topic and naming it after the current unit of study.

​
Creating Online Assessments and Assignments

Online assessments give students a structured way to test their understanding between formal examinations. Teachers set the questions, Edustream handles submission, and scores feed back into the gradebook.

​
Create an Assessment

1

Navigate to Assessments

Go to E-Learning → Assessments and click New Assessment.
2

Set Up the Assessment Details

Fill in the following:
  • Title — e.g., Chapter 4 Quiz — Chemical Reactions
  • Class and Subject — the target audience for this assessment
  • Total Marks — the maximum score students can earn
  • Due Date and Time — the deadline for submission
  • Duration — set a time limit if you want a timed assessment (optional)
3

Add Questions

Click Add Question to build your question bank. Edustream supports:
  • Multiple Choice — one or more correct answers from a list of options
  • True/False — binary response questions
  • Short Answer — free-text responses marked manually by the teacher
  • Essay — longer written responses with a character limit
4

Set Correct Answers and Marks

For objective questions (multiple choice and true/false), select the correct answer and assign a mark value per question. Edustream will auto-mark these question types on submission.
5

Publish the Assessment

Click Publish. Students enrolled in the selected class and subject will see the assessment appear in their My Assessments dashboard immediately.
Short answer and essay questions require manual grading. After the due date passes, go to E-Learning → Assessments → [Assessment Name] → Submissions to review and score each response. Objective question scores are already tallied automatically.

​
Running Computer-Based Tests (CBT)

Edustream’s advanced CBT mode is designed for formal, invigilated online examinations — mid-term tests, mock exams, or any assessment that requires controlled conditions and automated marking.

​
Set Up a CBT Exam

1

Create a New Assessment in CBT Mode

Go to E-Learning → Assessments → New Assessment and toggle CBT Mode on.
2

Configure Security Settings

CBT mode unlocks additional exam security options:
  • Randomize Question Order — each student sees questions in a different sequence
  • Randomize Answer Options — shuffles multiple-choice options to prevent copying
  • Full-Screen Lock — forces the student’s browser into full-screen mode; exiting triggers a warning
  • One Attempt Only — prevents students from retaking the exam
  • Access Window — set the exact start and end time during which students may open the exam
3

Add Questions and Marks

Build the question bank as you would for a standard assessment. CBT exams typically consist entirely of objective questions to enable fully automated scoring.
4

Publish and Invigilate

Publish the exam. During the exam window, go to CBT → Live Monitor to see which students are currently logged in and taking the test. You can see time remaining for each student and flag any suspicious activity.
5

Review Results

Once the access window closes, Edustream automatically scores all objective questions and displays results in a ranked table. Click Release Results when you are ready for students to see their scores.
Full-screen lock is enforced in the browser but is not a substitute for physical invigilation. Ensure an invigilator is present in the room during CBT exams for formal assessments that count toward term results.

​
AI Insights — Student Performance Analytics

Edustream’s AI Insight engine analyses assessment scores, attendance patterns, and gradebook data across every student in your school and surfaces actionable findings for teachers and administrators.

​
Access AI Insights

1

Open AI Insights

Go to E-Learning → AI Insights. Select the Class, Subject (optional), and Term you want to analyse.
2

Review the Performance Dashboard

The dashboard presents:
  • At-Risk Students — students whose scores show a declining trend or who are consistently below the class average
  • High Performers — students excelling across subjects who may benefit from enrichment activities
  • Subject Weak Spots — topics or assessment types where the class as a whole is underperforming
  • Attendance-Performance Correlation — a visualization showing how attendance rate relates to academic scores for the selected class
3

Drill Into Individual Students

Click any student’s name in the insight panel to open their individual performance profile, which shows a timeline of scores across all assessments, a subject-by-subject radar chart, and personalized AI-generated recommendations for the teacher.
4

Act on Recommendations

Each AI recommendation includes a suggested action — for example, “Consider scheduling a one-on-one session with this student on algebraic expressions, where their score dropped 22% from the previous assessment.” Use these prompts to prioritize your intervention sessions.
AI Insights refresh automatically every time new scores are entered or attendance is submitted. You do not need to manually trigger an analysis — the dashboard always reflects the latest available data.

​
Video Classes

Teachers can host or link recorded video lessons directly within the e-learning portal, making it easy for students to revisit class content.
1

Upload or Link a Video Lesson

Go to E-Learning → Resource Library, click Upload Resource, and select Video as the resource type. Paste a link to a recorded lesson (e.g., a recorded Zoom or Google Meet session stored on Google Drive) or upload an MP4 file directly.
2

Organize by Topic

Assign the video to the relevant topic in the subject library so students can find it alongside the related notes and assignments.
3

Notify Students

Toggle Notify Students before saving to send a push notification to enrolled students letting them know a new video lesson is available.

​
Student Access

Students log in to the e-learning portal from any internet-connected device — a school computer, a personal laptop, a smartphone, or a tablet.

Web Browser

Students visit the Edustream student portal URL and log in with their student ID and password. No installation required.

Mobile App

The Edustream Student app is available for Android and iOS. Students download it, log in once, and access all materials, assessments, and results from their phone.

Offline Access

Documents and PDFs saved in the resource library can be downloaded for offline reading. Online assessments and CBT exams require an active internet connection.
Share student login credentials during orientation week so every student is set up before their first online assessment. Go to Academics → Registrar → Students, select a student, and click Send Login Details to deliver their credentials by SMS or email.
