Notifications
Notifications are alerts from Blackboard that are sent when certain events happen in your course, such as a student sending you a message though Blackboard or a test becoming available to students. Blackboard notifications can be personalized and forwarded to your UMass email account.
A full list of event which cause notifications can be found on Blackboard Learn's Notification Settings Page.
Information about Blackboard notifications from the student perspective can be found on the Notifications Student Orientation and Resource page.
