The Announcements tool allows you to send an e-mail to some or all of your students, or to specific groups. to might want to alert them to the addition of a new document, to remind them of a deadline for submission of an assignment or to highlight and share a particularly good piece of work. Sending such e-mail announcements can also serve as a useful prompt to re-engage students who have not visited the site for some time (as long as it's not overdone!).
