MyWharton (https://mywharton.wharton.upenn.edu/) provides a central location for all the information students need and makes it available on any device. The Announcements module allows you to keep track of personal goals and support.
Announcements
The MyWharton Announcements module allows users with the correct privileges to message large groups of users at once. Most commonly, Academic Program Offices and Wharton Computing will be using this functionality. Some students who are leaders of a division-sponsored organization may have access to post Announcements. Some basic info about Announcements can be found below, but more detailed information can be found at Pathify's knowledge base.
Notification settings for Announcements are controlled by the person creating them. Students may get notified via Push Notification, E-mail, or not at all (just seen in MyWharton), depending on the settings chosen.
Administrative Features
Administrators in MyWharton have the ability to create announcements. Select "Add Announcement" to create a new Announcement.
When creating an Announcement, you can add an expiry date, attach files and images, set a scheduled post date, specify an audience and choose delivery channels. Wharton Computing recommends staying consistent with Delivery channels so that students can know what to expect.
If you don't have the ability to create Announcements and believe you should, reach out to Wharton Computing to let us know.
