The "Course Announcements" forum is added to every Moodle classroom by default. Announcements posted there are both added to the forum and sent via email to students' GCC email addresses. The post is created using the ATTO text editor, and all links will function in the post and the email. This includes linked documents, so you can "attach" documents to the post by:

  1. Compose the post.
  2. Highlight the text you want students to click to open the file.
  3. Click the "link" icon in the toolbar.
  4. Click to "Browse repositories."
  5. In the "File picker" select the file to attach. (Avoid attaching Word documents and PowerPoint files as students may not be able to open them.)
  6. Save.

Students may be prompted to log in to Moodle to open the attached files.
