Frequently Asked Questions
Q: If someone completes the form to combine their blackboard courses, will the pre-existing customization features be lost after the course has been combined?

A: If you have created content in one of the combined sections please let us know in the comments and we will ensure that the content remains intact through the combine process.

Page Summary
Use COLWeb's e-mail tool to quickly send e-mails to your course section(s), single or multiple students or specific user group(s) (if you created user groups under configuration). By default the system automatically sends a copy of every mail to your individual e-mail account (as noted at Campus Connection). You also have the choice of including your grader(s) to the mails or add an attachment.

 Select Recipients
Choose between three types of recipients:
  • Course section(s): By default only the course section(s) of the course group you are currently in are pre-selected. But you can manually add or remove sections as you prefer.

  • User group(s): User groups only will show up if you have configured them earlier.
    >> Learn more about setting up user groups in COLWeb here.

  • One or multiple course member(s): Here you select individual course members from a list. Hold the CTRL-key pressed to mark multiple names, then click on ">" to select them all at once.


 Enter Message Details
Every e-mail needs at least a subject line in order to be sent successfully.

 Attach File
You can add one attachment to each e-mail. If you need to add more than one attachment, we recommend to zip all files together before attaching them. The maximum file size for attachments is 10 MB.
