In this section, we give you examples of situations which trigger alerts, to assess that everything is plugged correctly. When testing it, please do not use students or contents which have already been used: it might create interferences.
To prevent alerts from happening too often, and to deliver them only when they are truely informative, if a student has the same behavior, which can trigger an alert, a few days apart, only the first time it will raise the alert.
Student Failing
What is in it?
A failing alert is triggered when a student fails too many exercises on the same topic compared to his/her classmates. The teacher is alerted in the hour following the failing.
The topic of failing is indicated thanks to the field knowledge_node_id. No specific assignment is advised.

The tutoring alert is triggered when a student has very low results while another has good results. They are matched together, so the student with good abilities can help the student who does not understand. Every morning, the teacher is likely to receive a new suggestion to have these students work together.
The student for whom the alert is triggered is the student with difficulties, while the student with good results is indicated in the field assignment.
