Your Student Dashboard: Your Learning Hub

Your Student Dashboard is your personalized space at Starblack Media Academy. Here’s a quick guide to its main sections:

* Welcome Message: A personalized greeting.
* My Enrolled Courses:
* This section lists all the courses you are currently actively subscribed to (Full Tracks) or have purchased (Intro Courses).
* For each course, you'll see its title, your current progress percentage, and the next lesson you should focus on.
* Click "Continue Learning" to jump directly into the course content.
* You may also find a "Message Instructor" button to directly contact the instructor for course-specific questions.
* Inactive/Expired Subscriptions:
* If you have past Full Track subscriptions that are no longer active, they might be listed here with an option to "Renew Subscription." Intro Courses, once purchased, typically offer ongoing access to their specific content.
* My Achievements:
* As you complete courses or specific milestones, any earned certificates or badges will appear here. Full Tracks offer a comprehensive certificate upon completion. Intro courses may offer a certificate of completion for the introductory modules.
* Explore New Courses Button: This button takes you to the "My Courses" page within the dashboard (or the public "Courses" page), which is our full course catalog where you can browse and subscribe/purchase new Intro Courses or Full Tracks.
* Sidebar Navigation:
* Dashboard: Returns you to this main student dashboard view.
* My Courses: Takes you to the course catalog to browse and subscribe/purchase.
* Messages: Access your private messages with instructors or other users.
