Why each option

To monitor live updates on assigned records, a task worker should use the Activity Stream icon on their 'My Work' list to see real-time changes and customer responses.

AOn My Work list, select the Activity Stream icon to show a frame with live updatesCorrect

The Activity Stream provides a chronological feed of updates, comments, and work notes related to records, offering live updates. By selecting the Activity Stream icon on their 'My Work' list, a task worker can efficiently monitor all relevant changes and customer interactions without opening individual records.

BClick on the eyeglass icon to expand the Monitor frame

There is no standard 'eyeglass icon' that expands a 'Monitor frame' for live updates across multiple records in ServiceNow.

COpen an Agent workspace tab for each record he wants to monitor

Opening a separate Agent Workspace tab for each record is inefficient and does not provide a consolidated, live overview of updates across all assigned tasks.

DSelect Service Desk > My Work Dashboard

The 'Service Desk > My Work Dashboard' typically displays aggregated data and lists, not a real-time stream of updates for individual records.
