The menu on the left can have a few different things in it:

  • My Courses — every course you're part of.
  • Store — other courses you could join.
  • Activity — a look back at your sessions, tests, and homework.
  • Fees — what's been paid and what's due, if you can see this.
  • Chats — messages with your tutor.
  • Get Started — your welcome guide, if you have one (see 1.4).

You won't see other students anywhere in this menu, and you can't message them. The only place you might see classmates is a leaderboard inside a course (see 4.5).
