- Under Course/Organization Tools select “Send Email”.
- Select to whom the email will be sent.
- Add a subject NOTE: The subject line will be suffixed with the sending course ID. There is no way to modify this, as it provides the recipient with an easy indication that it was sent from a particular course.
