The Manhattan Virtual Classroom is a web-based course management system that includes a variety of discussion groups, live chat, areas for the teacher to post the syllabus and other handouts and notices, a module for organizing online assignments, a grades module, a surveys module, and a unique, web-based email system open only to students in the class.
While these students will, no doubt, receive the email reminder they should also, in this new socially connected business, be able to view the course and their classmates on a self-service web portal that draws on the data from the HR system.
