# Deliver E-Learning and Online Assessments in Edustream

> Upload course materials, create online assessments and CBT exams, use AI-powered performance insights, and give students anytime access from any device.

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.

<Note>
  E-Learning is available on the **Core** plan and above. See [Plans & Pricing](/getting-started/plans-and-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

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Resource Library">
    Go to **E-Learning → Resource Library** and select the **Subject** and **Class** you are uploading for.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Upload Resource">
    Click the **Upload Resource** button in the top-right corner.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set Visibility">
    Choose whether the resource is visible to students immediately or saved as a **Draft** for you to publish later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Publish Resource** (or **Save Draft**). The resource appears in the library for all students enrolled in the selected class and subject.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  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

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to Assessments">
    Go to **E-Learning → Assessments** and click **New Assessment**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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)
  </Step>

  <Step title="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
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish the Assessment">
    Click **Publish**. Students enrolled in the selected class and subject will see the assessment appear in their **My Assessments** dashboard immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  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.
</Note>

## 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

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a New Assessment in CBT Mode">
    Go to **E-Learning → Assessments → New Assessment** and toggle **CBT Mode** on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  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.
</Warning>

## 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

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open AI Insights">
    Go to **E-Learning → AI Insights**. Select the **Class**, **Subject** (optional), and **Term** you want to analyse.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  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.
</Info>

## 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.

<Steps>
  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Notify Students">
    Toggle **Notify Students** before saving to send a push notification to enrolled students letting them know a new video lesson is available.
  </Step>
</Steps>
