Step-By-Step
Viewing Announcements
(Text version)

1. Blackboard allows instructors and TAs to post announcements on their Blackboard course site. These announcements appear on the Announcements page which is, by default, the opening page of a Blackboard course site.

2. To View an Announcement:

• Log into the Blackboard course site as usual.
• If it is not already displayed, click on the Announcements button. This will display the Announcements page.
• By default, all announcements for the last 7 days will be displayed along with any permanent announcements.
• To view announcements older than 7 days, click on the "View Last 30 Days" tab.
• To view announcements older than 30 days, click on the "View All" tab.
  
• The subject line of all announcements by all instructors will also appear on your Blackboard home page under "My Announcements". To see the full announcement, click on the subject line link.
