Announcements in Moodle
Announcements will be housed in the Course Information section and are used by your instructor to communicate important updates, information about the course, any changes in assignments/quizzes, due dates and news to the class. You should check announcements daily in all of your courses in Moodle. When you click on the Announcement link in your course, it will show you the announcement details.
Another way to check your announcements is to click on the Latest News Block in your course.
