Course Section E-mail Lists enable you to send messages to all of the students in a particular section with one e-mail address. There is no list maintenance on your part! The list(s) are automatically updated as students drop/add any course/section. A list of all members may be viewed in the "Instructor Only" folder in the Project Directory area for a course/section.
You may choose from two types of list templates. The first template is Instructor Only, where the instructor is the only person who can send a message to the list. Replies to messages for this list template are directed to the sender of the message. The second template is Members Only, where messages can be sent to the list by the instructor or students in the course/section. In this case replies to messages from the list are sent to the entire list.
