Daniela Leal Musa, Marcel Weschenfelder, José Palazzo Moreira de Oliveira · 2005
This paper describes an alarm manager aimed at monitoring students ’ activities in online courses over the Internet. The goal is to show an alarm manager to give more support to distance teaching, and help the teacher to have a thorough follow-up of distance students, thus minimizing the teacher’s task of looking for information in long reports or complex graphs. Besides, the alarm manager also helps students during their study sessions, sending extra material, help when it considers necessary. The alarm manager proposed here was incorporated into the distance-teaching environment known as Claroline. The propodsed solution is an approach to identify the necessary requirements for alarms integration with web-based distance teaching environments situations. 1.
