Alerts

Instructors are able to issue alerts in between progress reports. Alerts are a way to draw attention to a student who might be at risk for a variety of reasons, such as, needing tutoring, missing course materials, poor attendance, observations of student struggles, or other. Issuing an alert can draw attention to these students, create a virtual referral and prompt action from the student's academic advisors.

Here is the video on how to issue an alert: https://media.uaf.edu/media/t/1_no94d1k9.
