Screenshot(s)/Screen Recording: In this recording, I leave a chat in the Chat Tool with my mock student account, check my teacher account (I also refresh my browser) and see no notification, then I leave a chat message using the start thread option in my student account, and when I check with my teacher account I do see a notification for that message.

Hey @cynthia-enciso!

In order to get a notification as a teacher from a chat massage, you need to either mention the teacher, or I believe replying to a teacher’s thread works as well.
