  2. Sort by author - orders the announcements in alphabetical order according to the person who created the announcement
  3. Sort by modified date - orders the announcements in order based the creation (or most recent modification) date.

When you click the link, an arrow icon appears beside it showing if the list is sorted smallest to largest, or largest to smallest.  In the above illustration, the announcements are sorted by date, with the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom.If the link is clicked again, the arrow will icon points down showing that the oldest announcements are at the top and the newest ones are at the bottom of the list.
