Email students
Updated 23 Sep 2022
You can search for students based on performance criteria and email only these students. You also can:
- Email announcements.
- Email individual students from their Results page.
- Email students using alerts in the Gradebook.
When you email students, you are automatically cc'ed. Students see only their own email address, but your copy shows the full list of recipients.
You can attach up to five files, but their total must not exceed 5 MB.
Set the instructor email address
Enter the instructor email address in the program wizard. In program groups, the instructor email address is not inherited by the member courses.
