New to Canvas. I am sorry if this was answered somewhere already.
Desire: Email multiple students that have either yet to login or are otherwise unengaged - all at once. (similar to how you can do it in gradebook on a missing assignment or no submission).
Example: New course and I want to bump / prod / nag with occasional email to engage. I have to do this one by one or so it seems. Time consuming.
At a minimum it would be nice to just click their name. Better, would be a email all students who have not been online or otherwise active with some easy on click function - bam.
Doable?
Thank you for your help!

Hi there Barry McCarthy
Welcome to the Community.
Would the How do I send a message to all course users in Conversations as an instructor? guide help? You can definitely send messages to multiple students at one time if you do it from your inbox rather than the course.
The only fuss here is navigating those who have or have not participated. That's more of a retention tool requirement, which you may be able to find in an outside vendor (such as The specified item was not found. and The specified item was not found.) which allow you to contact from their dashboards.
Hope this helps! Feel free to clarify anything if it didn't hit what you were aiming for.
