Systems and methods for providing navigation of multiple organizations in one or more electronic learning systems
A method and system for providing navigation of multiple organizations of one or more electronic learning systems. The method involves operating a processor to obtain a global user identifier, obtain a navigation object to be displayed at the user computing device, and automatically generate an organization alert indicator for an organization object when the user has an outstanding alert from the electronic learning system of the organization. The navigation object includes a plurality of organization objects. Each of the organization objects correspond to an organization identifier of the plurality of organization identifiers for navigating to an electronic learning system of the organization.
1. A computer-implemented method for providing navigation of multiple organizations of one or more electronic learning systems, the method comprising operating a processor to:
obtain a global user identifier, the global user identifier representing a user at the user computing device, the global user identifier being linked to a plurality of organization identifiers, each organization identifier representing an organization to which the user is enrolled;
obtain a navigation object to be displayed at the user computing device, the navigation object comprising a plurality of organization objects, each of the organization objects corresponding to an organization identifier of the plurality of organization identifiers for navigating to an electronic learning system of the organization; and
automatically generate an organization alert indicator for an organization object when the user has an outstanding alert from the electronic learning system of the organization,
wherein obtaining a navigation object comprises:
for each of the plurality of organization identifiers linked to the global user identifier, determine whether the link is an active enrollment; and
for each link that is an active enrollment, including an organization object for navigating to the electronic learning system of the organization linked to the global user identifier having an active enrollment.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein only one of the set of organization objects is active within the navigation object at a time.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the organization alert indicator is visible when the organization object is inactive.
4. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to automatically clear the alert when the user navigates to an item corresponding to the alert of the organization object from the navigation object.
5. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to automatically clear the organization alert indicator when none of the alerts are outstanding.
6. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to poll the electronic learning system of the organization for outstanding alerts for the user.
7. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to generate a consolidated alert indicator when one or more organization alert indicators persist.
8. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to validate an authentication of the global user identifier prior to obtaining a navigation object to be displayed at the user computing device.
9. The method of claim 1 comprises operating the processor to:
receive a local user identifier from the user computing device;
validate an authentication of the local user identifier; and
locate the global user identifier linked to the local user identifier.
10. A system for providing navigation of multiple organizations of one or more electronic learning systems, the system comprising:
a communication component to provide access to one or more user computing devices; and
a processor in communication with the communication component, the processor being operable to:
obtain a global user identifier, the global user identifier representing a user at a user computing device of the one or more user computing devices, the global user identifier being linked to a plurality of organization identifiers, each organization identifier representing an organization to which the user is enrolled;
obtain a navigation object to be displayed at the user computing device, the navigation object comprising a plurality of organization objects, each of the organization objects corresponding to an organization identifier of the plurality of organization identifiers for navigating to an electronic learning system of the organization; and
automatically generate an organization alert indicator for an organization object when the user has an outstanding alert from the electronic learning system of the organization,
wherein obtaining a navigation object comprises:
for each of the plurality of organization identifiers linked to the global user identifier, determine whether the link is an active enrollment; and
for each link that is an active enrollment, including an organization object for navigating to the electronic learning system of the organization linked to the global user identifier having an active enrollment.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein only one of the set of organization objects is active within the navigation object at a time.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the organization alert indicator is visible when the organization object is inactive.
13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to automatically clear the alert when the user navigates to an item corresponding to the alert of the organization object from the navigation object.
14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to automatically clear the organization alert indicator when none of the alerts are outstanding.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to poll the electronic learning system of the organization for outstanding alerts for the user.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to generate a consolidated alert indicator when one or more organization alert indicators persist.
17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to validate an authentication of the global user identifier prior to obtaining a navigation object to be displayed at the user computing device.
18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is operable to:
receive a local user identifier from the user computing device;
validate an authentication of the local user identifier; and
locate the global user identifier linked to the local user identifier.
