The Mid-Term Alert System:
- Is designed for students to receive an e-mail notification regarding their classroom performance through the eighth week of the semester.
- Is required only for those in 1xxx- and 2xxx-level courses who appear to be in danger of receiving a grade of D, F or N. Students who are performing well may also receive an alert.
- Allows you to create and send alerts showing the student's level of progress.
- Generates e-mail notices sent to the student and the student's advisor.
- Is meant to provide helpful feedback on a student's progress in the course. The system is not to be used for final grade reporting and will not be part of a student's transcript.
Sending a Mid-Term Alert:
- When sending an alert, you may optionally include attendance information and any other free-form comments.
- This information can be sent either one student at a time, or you can select a batch of students and provide each student's information using a sequence of tables with rows of selected students.
The batch alert option is quicker when three or more alerts need to be sent. With a large number of students, greater speed and efficiency can be achieved by using quick keyboard navigation to fill in the alert information. More information about keyboard use is linked to pages within the batch operation. You will have one last chance to review your alerts, however, once an alert is sent, you cannot edit or revoke it. If an incorrect alert is sent, you must notify the student involved.
