Will Brightspace automatically send all students registered for my class the welcome announcement? Do I need to recreate it for multiple notifications? And will Brightspace populate the class address book automatically with registered students' email addresses?
When a new News Item is posted in a course, it is not sorted in correct chronological order on the News page. This causes an issue because when scheduled News Items post on a later date, they will not post above the manually created News Item on the course home page.
