Moodle offers us the option of being notified when students have submitted assignments. The illustration at right, for example, will notify the instructor when a student submits the assignment after the due date. In order to receive an email notice of submissions, you may need to revise your messaging options. To do so:

1. Open the user menu attached to your profile image in the top right corner of a Moodle page.
2. Click on Preferences.
3. Click on Messaging.
4. Scroll down until you find the section labeled Assignment notifications.
5. Select both boxes under Email.
6. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to Save changes.
