You can have a web page via TerpConnect. Additional information is available at: http://www.terpconnect.umd.edu/Class Announcements and Associated RSS Feed
Class announcements are located at Class Announcements. You should check announcements often (at least once every day). Notice that this announcements page is made possible through the forum software and unlike the class forum you cannot modify/post to this page.
You can also receive the class announcements by subscribing to the announcements RSS Feed and receive announcements via your favorite RSS reader. Keep in mind that there might be a delay (20 minutes or more) in receiving messages via the feed. To subscribe to the feed:
- Make sure your browser/system has a RSS Reader. In firefox you may use several RSS Reader extensions (e.g., Simple RSS Reader (SRR))
- You need to import the Computer Science Department root certificate into your browser as described in http://www.cs.umd.edu/faq/rootcert/
- The announcements RSS Link is: https://forum.cs.umd.edu/external.php&?type=RSS2&forumids=126
