There are many good reasons to send Moodle Messages to students. As an instructor, you can use Messages to:

• encourage or compliment learners regarding their attendance or participation,
• remind learners to complete an overdue assessment task,
• help learners locate resources,
• communicate general information.

Messages work in real time. If a Message is sent to a course participant while they are logged in, they will see a notification in the Messages block (if available), or at the top near their user name (it appears as a small red and white number on top of the messages icon).
