Instructors can personalize Brightspace announcements using replacement strings, inserting students' names and other individuating information into the announcements displayed on the course homepage automatically.
What are replacement strings
Instructors use replacement strings in Brightspace courses to customize and personalize the text used in certain Brightspace course tools. When the instructor enters a predefined code referring to a specific variable (e.g., {FirstName}) in the appropriate location in the text, Brightspace will display the text with that student's value inserted. For example, "Nice job {FirstName}!" would be displayed as "Nice job Ken!" for Ken and "Nice job Susan!" for Susan.
