Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for providing alerts in an online learning environment is provided. An electronic gradebook is maintained for a teacher of an online learning environment and includes education related data for each student of the teacher. An event in the online learning environment is identified based on receipt of further education related data for one of the students of the teacher for entry into the electronic gradebook. Automatically upon receipt into the electronic gradebook, an alert is generated for the event by identifying a type of the further education related data received and selecting a template for the alert based on the type of the further education related data. The template is filled with the further education related data and recipients of the alert that are associated with the student are identified. The alert is delivered to the identified recipients.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for providing performance alerts in an online learning environment is provided. Education-related information for a user is monitored within an online learning environment and an assignment completed by the user is received. A score of the assignment is determined to be below passing level. Other assignments that are the same as the received assignment and are associated with below passing scores of the user are identified. A number of the received assignment and the same assignments is determined as common assignments. A predetermined threshold is applied to the number of common assignments and when the number of common assignments exceeds the predetermined threshold, access of the user to the online learning environment is blocked. An alert providing notice of the user's blocked access is delivered.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for providing student enrollment alerts in an online learning environment is provided. A subscription threshold for an organization is determined for students enrolled in an online learning environment. The subscription threshold includes a number of subscriptions purchased by the organization. New enrollments for one or more of the students associated with the organization is received. A new enrollment alert is generated for each of the new enrollments and the alerts are delivered to an administrator of the online learning environment. A total number of the new enrollments are determined for the organization. The subscription threshold is applied to the number of new enrollments. A subscription alert is generated when the number of the new enrollments satisfies the subscription threshold.

Abstract: A system and method for providing student performance alerts in an online learning environment is provided. An online learning environment is monitored. A score for a test taken by a student at a first time is received. One or more previous scores for previous tests taken by the student at previous times are obtained. The score is compared with one or more of the previous scores to determine a difference between the score and the one or more previous scores. A change threshold is applied to the difference and the difference is determined to be significant when the difference is outside the threshold. An alert for the significant difference is transmitted to one or more recipients associated with the student.

Abstract: A system and method for providing education-related alerts in an online learning environment is provided. An online learning environment including a plurality of users participating in online educational activities is monitored. An online database including event rules and education-related information for the online educational activities is maintained. An event occurring in the online learning environment is identified. The event satisfies at least one of the event rules. A benchmark is determined for the event. The benchmark includes at least one of information selected from and information indicated by the education-related information. An alert is generated for the event by selecting a template for the event and populating the template with the benchmark as the alert. The alert is provided to one or more of the users.
