Abstract: A learning management system and method that deliver instructional materials to a student stores electronic addresses for a plurality of contacts associated with the student. The student is associated with a set of student's contacts comprising at least one student-selected contact and at least one mandatory contact. A student-selected contact comprises a contact designated by the student to be in the set of student's contacts and a mandatory contact comprises a contact that is not designated by the student to be in the set of student's contacts. A user interface is provided that enables the student to select between communication of messages with the student-selected contact and the mandatory contact.

Abstract: A learning management system and method displays corresponding learning environments for delivery of instructional material to a plurality of geographically dispersed remote student workstations located in a plurality of regions after the learning system authenticates a corresponding plurality of students at the plurality of geographically dispersed remote student workstations. Each learning environment displays a user interface on a respective remote student workstation located in one region of the plurality of regions. At least one region profile stores information specifying a rule associated with communication of information between a first region and another second region. Messages are communicated amongst the geographically dispersed remote student workstations located in the plurality of regions in accordance with the region profile.

Abstract: A learning management system and method stores in a database a framework for a set of learning activities. The set of learning activities comprises a sequence of learning units that are associated with a reference calendar for completion of the learning activities relative to a reference date. The reference calendar specifies a reference due date for completing a learning activity associated with a learning unit of the sequence of learning units. The reference due date is relative to the reference date. A learning environment for delivery of instructional material associated with the sequence of learning units is displayed on a remote student workstation after the system authenticates a student at the remote student workstation. The displayed learning environment comprises a user interface that is displayed to the student on the remote student workstation. The user interface displays an actual due date, for example, in a calendar format, for completing the learning activity.

Abstract: A learning management system and method displays a learning environment for delivery of instructional material to a remote student workstation student after authenticating a student at the remote student workstation. The learning environment displays a user interface to the student on the remote student workstation used to interact with an instructional material when the student enters into a learning session associated with a course when messages are communicated to and from the student. Communicated messages with the student are monitored to determine whether a message contains an unauthorized content and upon detection of an unauthorized content, an alert message is transmitted, for example, to an student associated with the course or to the student.

Abstract: A learning management system and method delivers an instructional material to a student workstation after authenticating an student's entry into a learning session that is associated with a plurality of contacts. Stored electronic addresses in a database include a first electronic address that is associated with a first contact and a second electronic address that is associated with a second contact. The first contact is associated with the learning session and the second contact is not associated with the learning session.
