Let’s pretend finals are creeping up on you and your students. You have provided a study guide to assist in preparing for the final. Half the students have looked at it, but half haven’t. You would like to send an announcement, but only want the announcement to appear for those students who have not looked at the study guide.
Send an announcement with a release condition and {FirstName} replace string for personalization.

Release conditions allow you to create custom learning paths for students by setting conditions a student has to fulfill before being allowed to access specific course material or activities. When you attach a release condition to an item, you create rules which restrict users from seeing specific items or content until they meet certain criteria.
For example:
– Students can only take the quiz for week 3 if they have received a passing grade for the quiz in week 2.
– Students will not be able to see the final exam until they have submitted all the previous assignments or activities
– Students are required to view the week’s materials before they can post to the week’s discussion topic.
– Students who received a passing grade item on an activity will be able to submit to an extra credit assignment
Release conditions are available in nearly every tool or item type in Brightspace including Content, Assignments, Quizzes, Discussions, Announcements, Awards, Intelligent Agents and more.
NoteYou must attach the release condition to the item, topic, or activity you want to make available based on the specific criteria. For example, if you want students to be able to see assignment B only after scoring a passing grade on assignment A, then you will attach the release condition to assignment B. That assignment will be hidden from students until they meet the condition of earning a passing grade on assignment A.
To Setup Release Conditions
In Content, click the drop down arrow next to the topic name or the module name you wish to attach a release condition, and select Edit Properties in Place, then click into the Add Dates and Restrictions section to “create and attach” release conditions.
In the Assignments, Discussions or Quizzes tool, click on the drop down arrow next to the item name and select Edit, then click on the Restrictions tab to create an attach release conditions.
1. Click Create and Attach
2. Select the Condition Type (for example, “Score on a Quiz”)
3. Select the Condition Details(for example, Quiz name, criteria, and grade)
5. You can add additional criteria if desired. Select whether you want all conditions or any conditions to be met, and then click Update.
WarningIf you use release conditions in your course, make sure to let your students know right at the start, or in the areas where you include them. That way they will know that not all content is available to them yet and that they themselves are responsible for "unlocking" all the content in the course. If you do not communicate this, they may not know they are missing content or activities for completion.
For additional details and a complete list of Release Condition Types, visit the Brightspace documentation.

OPTION 2: Add the link to the Groups tool to Content.

OPTION 3: Students can view the groups from the Classlist.
Go to the Classlist and click on the dropdown menu next to their name.
Select “View Group Enrollments” to see the list of groups they are enrolled in.
If you created a self-enrollment group, you can create a link to the group in Content, Announcements or anywhere you have the HTML Editor to add Quick Links (see below) so students can enroll in the group of their choosing. They can also do this if you post a link to Groups using Option 2 above.
NoteTo use the Self Enroll Groups, one of your course groups must be Self Enroll.

If you are concerned about risk management/low activity/gauge engagement, “Automate” with intelligent agents.
NoteThe Attendance tool does not integrate with Grades
NoteAttendance registers are entries that you create to track attendance for activities in your organization or course. For example, you can create attendance registers to track attendance for mandatory chat sessions, weekly seminars, or meetings.
Use registers to define the sessions, attendance expectations, and applicable users and enter data as you complete each session.
Click a register's name to view or make changes to its attendance data.
