Sending private messages
Moodle provides an internal messaging system that allows you to send private emails to other students, your tutor(s) and administrators.
This messaging system is a bit like email, but it is only for participants of the VLE, and messages will not leave the VLE. You CANNOT send messages to normal email addresses here, although VLE users can configure to receive an email notification when they receive a new Moodle message.
Suggested Activity
Go to the Message block. Send a private message to Yanna Instructor (search for her name) to tell her how you are finding the course so far.
