Notification Types
Notifications can be used to send a reminder or notice to students. These notices can be displayed on the student's dashboard, when they login on a kiosk, or they can be emailed to the student directly. The notification can also request a response from that student, whether that be a simple "Submit" or "Okay" button, or a text entry field for students to write in directly.
You can create as many notification types as you need, and they can be assigned to different permission groups determining who can send what notification.

Creating Notification Types

To create a new type, click the + icon and click on the name of the type to rename it.

Allowing your Staff to Create Notifications
