Write message

The COMMUNICATION > Messages > Write option allows you to write a new message to one or more users, or to reply to a received message.

New message

To write a new message, the first thing you need to do is select the recipients. If you are located in a course, you will see individual lists with the teachers and the students of the course, being able to choose, like in other options, the view in the form of class photo or in the form of list. In addition you can add other recipients by entering their @nicknames, their emails or their IDs, separated by commas.

Then write the subject and the content of the message. The message content must be plain text, but you can include equations or formulas in LaTeX. To write a mathematical formula in line with the text you must use \(LaTeX\), and to write a centred equation use $$LaTeX$$ or \[LaTeX\].

As in other options, it is also possible to incorporate multimedia content.

Reply

To reply to a received message, go to COMMUNICATION > Messages > Received, expand the message to reply, and click on the Reply icon on the left of the message. This will take you to the COMMUNICATION > Messages > Write option. The default recipient is the user who sent you the original message, but you can choose other recipients by clicking on the Show more recipients link.
