Cool Notifications / News feed tool
If I get a homework a new homework task I get alerted. If someone invites me to comment on something I get notified. New assessment results released? Then I get notified. Just like facebook I'll be able to keep abreast of all the recent activity related to me. I can also select my notification preferences e.g. send an email alert etc
