Commenting on Announcements


You can comment on an announcement directly in the expanded announcement view (unless commenting in that Community has been disabled).


Click the + to the left of the announcement title. Beneath the announcement summary, you will see a comment box. Type your comment into the box and click Comment to submit.


You can also make comments in the full announcement view. Click on the announcement title to open the announcement view. The comment box appears below the full announcement. All previous comments also appear in reverse chronological order below the comment box. 


Student comments may require teacher moderation.
