Dashboard suggestions

1. When I first logged in to Prokolabs, the Dashboard had a list of instructors to follow so their activity would be displayed in my feed. Is there a way to get that list again? I can only find 'Unfollow' buttons in 'Edit Profile'.
2. Would it be better to have some kind of cogwheel icon next to the feed in the dashboard where you could control what appears in the feed?
3. Is it possible to add a 'Posts' section to the Dashboard. There's a posts count in the 'My Profile' panel, but no way to see a list of posts.

1. You can see a list of instructors at https://prokolab.com/instructors
2. What options would you see in this cogwheel?
3. The newsfeed in your dashboard shows you activity of people you follow, courses you added to your classroom and community categories you're subscribed to. It doesn't show you your own posts. Your posts are in your profile. There are several ways to get to your profile. The easiest is by clicking your name or icon on any post. Another is in the top right menu of the site, click on your icon and select My Profile.
Thanks Stan. I'm in betatester mode, so these suggestions are really to keep myself in the mind of a new user and to highlight where the potential snags are.
For instance, thanks for the link to the list of instructors but there's no obvious way to find that page. Perhaps a good place would be a tab on the Browse page?
The Feed cogwheel could link to a settings page which shows all subscriptions to that feed, perhaps with further options to add new content (such as the list of instructors you linked to).
Again in betatester mode, adding an Activity tab to the main dashboard page would make my activity easier to find.
Aha! Found a list of my posts by clicking on my avatar then clicking the Activity Tab.
Can the Activity tab be added to the Dashboard page?
