In the last section we learned about displaying messages. In this section we learn how to send a new message.

Open up WebCT Mail and click on the Compose button. WebCT will open up a new window like the one below.

In the Send to: box, type in the login id name of the person you want to send your message to. If you don't know their login id, click on the button and you will see a list of of the names and login ids of all members of your online classroom. Click on the name you want.

In the Subject: box type in what your message is about. Then click on the large box. This is where you type in the text of your message, just as you would type a letter in your word processor. When you are done, click on the button.

Why not send an email to the instructor to introduce yourself ?
