This Moodle plugin allows a teacher to notify course students by messaging when a new resource/activity is created or modified into a course.
The notification is activated by an action performed by the teacher. This new action is shown in a new entry at the end of the Edit dropdown menu, available for each resource or activity, on a course page.
The notification message contains two links by default, one to the resource, and the other to the course. The Moodle admin can modify this default setting. The teacher can change the text to send.
The teacher can control who the message is sent to, by default all the users enrolled into the course and allowed to view the resource. The notification conforms to resource access restrictions such as course groups.
