This article explains what Notifications are, how you can turn them on/off and how you can connect the notifications to your Email address.
Notifications are updates of a course you receive by e-mail. It does not concern the alerts in Brightspace itself. You can choose from which courses and course components you wish to receive updates by e-mail.
1. Click on your name or photo in the minibar.
2. Click on notifications.
1. Here, you can see to what E-mail address notifications are sent. This e-mail address can not be changed; Brightspace automatically uses @student.hhs.nl.
2. Select whether you would like to receive a daily summary of notifications under Summary of Activity. If you wish to receive a Summary of notifications you can alter the moment of the day at which you wish to receive this summary. If you do not change this setting, you will by default receive the summary at 00:00.
