In your Brightspace courses you have the ability to create announcements to communicate with your students. You can can also pin these announcements so they always remain at the top of the list of announcements.
Step 1:
On the homepage for your course, select the caret next to "Announcements."
Step 2:
Select "New Announcement" from the drop-down menu.
Step 3:
Enter a Headline and Content for your announcement.
Step 4:
Set the times for publishing and expiration if needed and then select the "Publish" button.
Step 5:
To pin the announcement you have made, select the caret next to the announcement title and navigate to "Pin to top."
Note: students are able to dismiss announcements from their own course homepages but are still able to access the announcements from the Announcements area in the Course Menu.
