From time to time, you will have general important announcements to students. Paradigm supports this need by giving you the option to display your announcements via the Student Summary screen and keeping track of all the announcements you’ve made by saving them as data resources in the system. This knowledge article will guide you on how to create/add a new announcement and how to remove/hide them for instances when they are no longer applicable/relevant.

NOTE:

The intention of this screen is for students to read your general important announcements relevant to their studies, etc. thus we’re setting the Permission Level to the lowest possible access as the default. However, if you want to create/add announcements that are intended only for higher-level access users, you can still do so by changing the Permission Level field.

Workflow

The announcements that you are making are being stored and kept track as data resources in your business or institution. Each time you make an announcement, you also have to create a new data resource content in Paradigm. The instructions below will guide you on how to do it:
