Announcements

The Announcements tool is helpful for distributing information to your students, especially if they have set up notifications for your course.

Creating an Announcement

    Announcements drop-down menu
  2. Type a headline, then the content of your announcement in the Text Editor.
  3. Configure the availability of the announcement. We recommend always adding an End Date to your announcement - this will prevent old announcements from being sent out when you copy content into new courses.
