Create Announcements in Blackboard Ultra

This tutorial demonstrates how to create announcements in Blackboard Ultra. Announcements help you share important information with others in your course. Unlike messages, announcements appear immediately when a student opens a course. Students are less likely to ignore the information you share in a course announcement because it demands attention before viewing course content.
