Sending an Announcement to your Class
You can send a welcome message or other important announcement to your students right from your Canvas course. This ensures all students in the course receive your message. Students can view announcements directly in Canvas, the Canvas Student App, or via their Stan State email. Students may visit the Announcements area to view all previously sent announcements.
NOTE: Courses must be published in order for students to receive and/or view Announcements.

Editing an Announcement
The message contained within an announcement may be edited. After the announcement has been sent, it is not possible to recall or edit the copy of the message students will receive via email. The message can be edited within Canvas however. Consider sending a follow up announcement to clarify incorrect information.
