Announcements in Ultra

Announcements in Ultra are a way for your instructor to send out information about what is happening in your course. 

Some information you might find in your announcements are due date reminders, information about upcoming assignments, ways to communicate with your instructor, and more. 

It is very important to check your announcements on a regular basis since this is the main mode of communication from your instructor. 

Here is how you access the Announcements page in Ultra:

1. Click on Announcements in your course menu, which runs across the top of your screen. 

2. Once on the Announcements page, you can see a list of all the announcements from your instructor, including when the announcement was made under the posted column. 

3. If you click on a specific announcement, the announcement page will display so that you can read the entirety of the message from your instructor.
