OR

Via Course Home:

  • Under Announcements on the right-hand side of your screen, click on Show All Announcements.
  1. Click the fold-out arrow behind an announcement title to:
    • Edit: you can use the same options as when you are creating a new announcement
    • View: view the announcement in its entirety
    • Dismiss from Widget: this option makes the announcement invisible on the homepage
    • Delete: remove the announcement
  2. To delete multiple announcements at once, select them using the selection box on the left next to Title. Click Delete to remove them.
  3. To recover deleted announcements, click More Actions and go to Restore. Select the announcements you want to bring back and click Restore.
