Student Learning Environment (SLE)

Every student has their Student Learning Environment tracked in the NJSMART tab in OnCourse SIS. When a student has multiple SLE's in a year, NJSMART now requires transactional reporting. To support this requirement, the student's SLE can now be updated in the Enrollment tab of the OnCourse SIS. 

What is the Student Learning Environment?

Allows districts to report the chosen method for delivering instruction to a student.

Choose from:

• Fulltime on-premises
• Hybrid (partial in person on-premises/partial remote)
• Fulltime remote
• Fulltime remote due to parental or guardian choice

What has changed with NJSmart?

The Student Learning Environment will now be tracked at the enrollment level. Allowing districts to account for multiple student learning environments for a single student in the current school year.

How has OnCourse changed to accommodate these changes?

The Student Learning Environment field can still be found in SID Management (Remote Learning) section of the NJSmart tab. Here you can choose the student learning environment. If the student learning environment changes during the school year, this can be managed at the enrollment level.

*If you have specific questions regarding scenarios in which you would need to update the enrollment record throughout the year, please contact NJSMART Help Desk by calling (800) 254-0295 or emailing NJSMART@pcgus.com.
