Want to email all the students in your class quickly and easily? We have two great Moodle tools for that. One is the News Forum (sometimes called Announcements), and the other is to send a message via the Participants List.
To send using News Forum--
1. Go to Moodle using one.bellarmine.edu and click the course link.
2. Go to the Administration block and click on Edit Settings. You need not make any changes just scroll down and click on Save Changes.
3. The News Forum/Announcement link will now appear.
4. Click on it and type in the subject and message and click on send with now time-editing delay and click on post to the forum.
To send messages via the Participants option--
1. Go to Moodle using one.bellarmine.edu and click on the Course Link.
2. Go to the Navigation block on the left and click on Participants which brings up a roster.
3. Click on the Select All button and then in the choose area use the drop-down menu to select Message. Please note if you have more than 20 students you will need to select all on each page before composing and sending the message to reach all students.
4. Compose the Message, click on Preview, and click on Send.
