1 00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:14,880 Tim Van Norman: To create an announcement in your course, you 2 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,470 click on announcements on the left. If you have never created 3 00:00:19,470 --> 00:00:24,450 an announcement, you can go ahead and it says, create the 4 00:00:24,450 --> 00:00:27,930 announcement above that is the plus announcement up here. Go 5 00:00:27,930 --> 00:00:30,690 ahead and click on the plus announcement. And now you are 6 00:00:30,690 --> 00:00:35,310 typing in an announcement. Unless you choose to delay 7 00:00:35,310 --> 00:00:40,020 posting down here at the bottom and post at a particular date 8 00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:45,270 and time, this announcement will go out the moment you hit save. 9 00:00:45,450 --> 00:00:47,760 So be careful and understand what you're doing. 10 00:01:23,820 --> 00:01:29,670 You can include in this announcement, links to other 11 00:01:29,940 --> 00:01:32,910 parts of your course. So for instance, under course, 12 00:01:32,910 --> 00:01:40,560 navigation, we have syllabus. So here, I can have it linked to 13 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,870 the syllabus actually go out to the students as part of this. 14 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,280 So here, I can also go to modules. And I can pick the week 15 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:10,080 one module there. So now, the students actually will have a 16 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,770 link to the syllabus and week one module directly in the 17 00:02:13,770 --> 00:02:20,340 announcement. I'm not going to delay posting at this time, I 18 00:02:20,340 --> 00:02:24,600 can allow users to comment, I can enable it as a podcast feed 19 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:32,940 or I can allow liking if I would like you can choose to add an 20 00:02:32,940 --> 00:02:36,720 attachment if you would like something that you want to send 21 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,590 to them. Basically, this is going to go to your course, if 22 00:02:40,590 --> 00:02:43,350 you have crosslisted your course you can send it to just one 23 00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:48,420 section of the course. But for the most part, you're never 24 00:02:48,420 --> 00:02:55,530 going to change the post to and you simply hit save. That is the 25 00:02:55,530 --> 00:02:58,530 announcement that's gone out. And if you take a look, by 26 00:02:58,530 --> 00:03:01,440 clicking on home here, you'll see that announcements now is 27 00:03:01,470 --> 00:03:06,630 dark. If I look at the student view, and I refresh the student 28 00:03:06,630 --> 00:03:12,930 view, two things have occurred. One, I now have the announcement 29 00:03:12,930 --> 00:03:18,090 at the top. And this is because I went into settings for the 30 00:03:18,090 --> 00:03:24,360 course under another video under settings at the bottom more 31 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,920 options. And I said show recent announcements on course homepage 32 00:03:28,950 --> 00:03:31,950 for the last three announcements. So because I did 33 00:03:31,950 --> 00:03:36,060 that, it now for the student will show that announcement at 34 00:03:36,060 --> 00:03:41,550 the top of the page, the most recent three announcements. So 35 00:03:41,550 --> 00:03:45,090 they see it there, they can go into announcements and they can 36 00:03:45,090 --> 00:03:53,520 see the announcement and they also can go into their inbox and 37 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,390 actually it is not showing up in the inbox. So I am going to edit that out. 38 00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:15,600 So that is those are two places where so those are two places 39 00:04:15,630 --> 00:04:21,060 where the student can see the announcement. Thank you
