Announcements

Announcements are a communication tool that your instructor can use to let you know of important updates, changes or reminders. Make sure that you set your Notification Preferences to receive announcements to ASAP so that you receive these in a timely manner. Setting your notification preference to ASAP may save you a trip to campus if your instructor is ill, or remind you that you have a quiz at the next class, or that the quiz date has changed. If your notifications are set to daily or weekly you may not receive the notification in time to assist you.
