You can Announcements are a great way to communicate with your students. When you create an announcement in your course to send a message to everyone at once. it is delivered to all students within the course via three communication channels:
- Within your MyClasses course
- Via email to their SU or default email address
- Via notification or text message on mobile devices when students use the Canvas Student app (and most students use this app)
If you have a combined course, by default, Canvas will send your announcement to all sections within your course. However, you can also choose to send announcements to specific course sections. Announcements will always live in the course, but users who have set their notification preferences to receive notifications for announcements will also receive an email and/or text message about the announcement as well.
