Does anyone have a best practices with examples for Announcements? I find our Announcements are very inconsistent with LARGE FONTS, Colors, Bold and some text that runs on forever. Thanks
Hi Jay, Aside from the Announcement resources available through the D2L Community, several of which are linked below, our friends over at Xavier University of Louisiana and Carleton University have some great resources with useful guidance covering how to use announcements effectively with examples. See https://cat.xula.edu/food/brightspace-tip-288-announcements/ and https://carleton.ca/brightspace/instructors/posting-announcements/ Additional D2L Community resources include:
Hope that helps!
Hi Chris, Hope all is well and thank you for the links. I've seen those and they mostly talk about how to create, edit, etc. an announcement. I was looking for examples of good formatting vs. "not so good" formatting and design. Example below of what I consider a good one from one of the D2L resources and there is an example of a video note. Maybe I need to create a resource.
