Course Announcements

Announcements are a course tool that your instructor may use to send out important information to you and your classmates. Your instructor can choose where you can view class announcements. You may see recent Announcements on your Course Home Page or in a link in your Course Navigation where you can view all course announcements.

After opening a course from the Dashboard you are automatically taken to the course Home Page. If your instructor has enabled Announcements for your course Home Page a preview of recent announcement titles are listed at the top of the Course Home Page.  Announcements with a dot on the left side have not been read by you. Click on the announcement to view the full message.
