as a knowedge tree to digest or farm information but I wonder about its value
for getting a message out to all staff. I had a similar problem, how best to
work out an e-version of our staff daily bulletin. In the end, I created an area
called Staff and organised school staff within into groups called Teachers /
SSO / Other. A News forum enables e-mail messages to be posted to all the staff
and a Principal bulletin allows for a daily bulletin to be posted to all the
college staff. I tortured myself over this but in the end decided to turn off
the reply and post options for everybody but the admin team and office staff.
We have other forums for social chat, footy tipping, professional learning
teams tc but they are opt-in and small groups rather than spam for all. <br>

Subject: [Moodle] Daily Bulletin on Moodle - whats the best method ?<br>
<br>
Hi<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any advice on the best method to deploy a daily bulletin <br>
within Moodle ? - the calender was the obvious choice but I was wondering if<br>
others have tackled this differently ?<br>
<br>
cheers<br>
Russell<br>
