Announcements
Accessing Announcements
Announcements are placed in the course shell by your instructor and provide critical course information. Checking the course and reading the course announcements will help insure your success in the course. The Announcement page generally is the first page of the course and is viewed after you have clicked on your course link. However, your instructor may choose to have a different page appear as the first page of the course. To view the announcements, click on the Announcement button or link in the Navigation bar located on the left-side of the navigation window.
Announcements are ordered by date with the most recent date displayed first. An announcement is displayed on the View Last 7 Days tab for 7 days unless your instructor has made it a permanent announcement. Once the seventh day passes, the announcement moves from the View Last 7 Days to the View Last 30 Days and then finally the View All tab (see graphic).
