Send Canvas Messsage

We use the Canvas Inbox feature for messaging people.  It looks and appears very similarly to an email. 

With this assignment, you will reply to a message from me (your instructor).  You will then send a message to me as well as your classmates.  Look at the attachments below for the message to send to your classmates.  Also, you will see a list of terminology appropriate for messaging and emailing.  Be sure you understand the terminology!

Let's begin.

1. Message #1 - Click ‘Reply’ and send me a message in response to what I wrote to you. Your message can be something you would like to say to me, a question, or just to let me know you received my message.
2. Message #2 - Message the person sitting to your right or closest to your right. Tell the student what you have learned about proper messaging behavior.
3. Message #3 - Message a friend from this class.  You may relate something that you like about this class or what you have learned in this class or another class.
4. Message #4 - Send the message displayed here when you click the link Download link
   to the entire class.

Great job!  You have learned how to message and practiced sending and receiving messages.
