This summer, I piloted D2L and though I'm MOSTLY pleased with this new LMS there is one glaring problem:
I am tired of students being FORCED to use i-mail (which as we know is not terribly reliable - not always reaching students, blocking/deleting attachments, requiring way too many "steps" for students, going "down" when our server periodically dives, etc.). AND it's very frustrating not to be able to e-mail my students at their "preferred" e-mail addresses directly from the course website.
With blackboard, it was soooooo easy to send an e-mail to everyone and/or particular students.
I just don't understand why we cannot allow students to choose and enter their preferred e-mail address on D2L.

In Blackboard I can update my email address. In Desire 2 Learn I am forced to use iMail. What gives?
