There are scenarios in which an instructor might be part of multiple classrooms/modules, but does not require to receive any notifications from some of the classrooms. For example, a user could be a head of department and added to all classrooms in the department, but is actually only teaching a few of those classes. Such a scenario would only warrant the instructor to receive notifications for some selected classrooms and not all.
As an instructor, you can choose to disable notifications for one or more classrooms that you are part of. Let's see how you can do this.
1. As an instructor, access your notifications preferences.
2. On the Notification Preferences page, click the Classrooms tab.
3. Under the Classrooms tab, all your active classrooms will be listed. An Enabled column will state whether or not notifications will be enabled for the corresponding classroom(s). By default, it would be enabled for all the classrooms.
Deselect the classrooms from which you do not want to receive any notifications.
4. Then click Save at the bottom left of the page to save the configuration. Once saved, any notifications triggered for that classroom will not be sent to you either through web, push notification or email.
