Send course announcement by email
Blackboard Learn SaaS Continuous Delivery v3800.17.0 | Release to Production 3 September 2020
Original Course View, Ultra Course View
To be sure Ultra course announcements reach as many students as possible, we've added the ability to send course announcements by email. Emails about Ultra announcements are always sent and aren't controlled by the global notification settings. Instructors also receive a copy as the email is sent to all course members. In the email, embedded content appears as links. Students can select the links to view the content.
You can't send an email for an announcement that you schedule for a future date.
We also reformatted the subject line for announcement emails in the Original Course View. Now, they’re consistent with the Ultra Course View.
