Model to implement push notifications for users which are different for each notification in Titanium

Question

I want to implement notifications for my android app(Titanium framework) but I am not sure on how to implement.
I have a lms website. If a faculty creates an assignment in a course, all the students of that course has to get notifications.

I want to do it in the below way:

1. I will collect the device tokens and map with the student id when a student login in my app(lms) from the device
2. I will send a notifications to all device id's of students in the respective course

Is it a right way to do it?
Also I am confused about device id vs user session based notifications in Titanium. Can you please tell me which one I should use in this scenario.
