These alerts notify you of classes where one or more assignments assigned by your teacher need to be completed. A scroll bar is provided for scrolling through the list in the event there are more than five classes. If there are no alerts, then there are no incomplete assignments for that class. In addition, if your teacher for a specific class has a Google e-mail account, then a calendar icon is provided to the left of the class name for viewing their calendar.
Each class has its own Incomplete Assignment Alert. Click on a Class Name link to access incomplete assignments and course activities for the selected class. Upon clicking a link, Castle Learning Online displays a Class Activities page.
