Important announcements

By default, every course you create in Moodle is given a Topic 0 with a News forum added. The Latest News block is also automatically added. This block displays the latest announcement(s) added to the News Forum. You may also customize the title for the News forum or Latest News blocks. In the next screenshot, you can see the results:

However, if the announcement is especially important, you might not want to count on your students to read the Latest News block. In these cases, consider using Topic 0 for critical announcements. Note the announcement in the next screenshot and compare it with the previous screenshot:

In this example, the teacher added a label to Topic 0. The headline was formatted with the style Heading 3 so that it stands out from the general news and announcements tab. Then the label was positioned at the top of the topic.
