Communicating with Your Students in Moodle

Communicating with Students is easy with Moodle 4, and you have several options depending upon your needs.
First, the quickest way to communicate with your students is by posting in the News & Announcements forum

Anything you post here will remain there throughout the semester as an archive, but will also be sent to the students email. 

Another tool you might try is the Messaging tool in the upper right corner of the page:

The messaging tool is connected with your Moodle account, rather than a course. Here you can send a message that will show as a notification and can also be set to send to email. This area is customizable for you. You can search for students by name, add them to your contacts and/or create groups as needed.
