There are two ways that an instructor may email a student via Moodle. They may use the Quickmail feature or they locate the list of enrolled users. Using either option will allow the instructor to email their entire class or specific students.

If the Quickmail block is not available on an instructor’s course, the block may be added by turning the editing on the homepage. Scroll down, until the Add a Block option is located on the left of the screen.
Scroll down to the Quickmail option and select a “Compose New Email”
The option to select groups (if applicable) or select specific students. If no groups are created, one may simply select “Not in a Group” and all class members will be selected below in the “Potential Recipients” block. Once students are selected, click the “Add” button. These additions will be added to the “Selected Recipients” window.
NOTE: One may also select “Add All” to select all class members.
