Email

Updated 17 Aug 2021

You can send email to your students, selecting email recipients from the list of students enrolled in your course. To create your emails, use the content editor with its tools for formatting, adding links, and adding equations. You can also add attachments to your emails.

Students can send private email to you, as well as to other students enrolled in your course.

  1. Select Course Tools or Communication Tools, and then select Email.
  2. Under Select recipients, choose individual names or (All Class Members):
    • Select Add to move these names to the Recipients list.
    • Select Remove to move names out of the Recipients list.
  3. To hide the list of other recipients, select Bcc (Do not disclose recipients).
  4. You can add other recipients in the Cc text box. For example, send a copy to recipients who are not in your class.

    Notes:

    • An email is sent automatically to your instructor email address that appears above the Cc text box.
    • Your students cannot use the Cc text box. They can only send email to instructors or other students who are enrolled in the course.
  5. For Subject, enter an email subject.

    In the generated email, the subject title begins with the course ID, followed by a colon, and then the subject you enter.

  6. For Attachments, select Add/Remove:
    1. For File to attach, select Choose File to locate the file.

      Try to keep each file you attach smaller than 10 MB.

    3. To delete an attachment, select the Remove Attachment icon .
    4. To return to your email, select Done.

If you or other recipients don’t receive an email sent from this tool, check the spam folder and update the spam filter to allow Email@SchoolEmail.org.
