Moodle Help

The Announcements forum is a special forum for general news and announcements. This forum is automatically created in a new course. By default, it is placed in the top section of the course. As this section is displayed at the top of all course materials, it is a best practice to limit the content in this area to only the Announcements forum.

The Announcements forum, includes only posts made by the instructor, and students cannot post in it. The forum has forced subscription set by default, which means that students will receive emails every time an announcement is posted.
