Email Instructor

From CLEW Wiki

Overview

The Email Instructor tool allows students to compose and send an email to you and/or your TAs without leaving CLEW. Emails you receive through the Email Instructor tool will be sent to your UWin email account. When you receive the email in your Inbox, the subject will begin with the course number and be followed by whatever the student entered as the subject. This way you will be able to recognize email coming from course sites.

• A copy of the student’s email is sent to the student who is sending the email.

• The Email Instructor tool ensures that students are emailing using their UWin ID email address. The Email Instructor tool does not allow the student to submit using another email address such as yahoo, hotmail, gmail, or sympatico.

• If you were given a “CLEW/Joe/Jill Student” account, do not send an email while logged in as “CLEW/Joe/Jill Student”. Email Instructor will not work from this account and will result in an error message.

• As an instructor, you may use the Email Instructor tool to send an email to your TA(s) without leaving CLEW. At this time, there is no way to send an email to individual students through CLEW, except in the Discussions tool using Private Messages.

• In project sites, the Instructor refers to the Site Organizer. There is no TA on a project site.
