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.
