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 displayed to students. When instructors enter a predefined code (e.g., {FirstName}) in the appropriate location in the text, Brightspace displays 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.
