Sending a message in Blackboard is a way to start a dialogue, ask a question, or inform your students of material they are missing.
Sending the message on Blackboard also sends an email directly to the student.
Step 1: Open up your desired course and click on the "Messages" tab at the top of the course.
Step 2: On the next page, click on the "New Message" button located on the right-side of the screen.
Step 4: The "Allow replies to this message" button does exactly what it says. When turned on, the recipients can reply to your message.
Step 3: Select who you want to receive the message. You can select individual students or everybody.
Step 5: Craft a message and make sure you press send.
This is what your message will look like for your student
