Periodically I get emails about campus events that might interest my students. Instead of announcing these in class or forwarding the emails to my students, I decided to post the information inside my LMS course accounts using the News widget.
Then I thought of the implications. First, I would need to post these items in each of my course offerings. Also, my students might miss the class-related news items if those items are surrounded by non-class items.
To solve these problems, I created a blog just for campus events and posted a feed of that blog on my course account home pages. Now all I need to do is update the blog with each email and the information is there for my students automatically.
