A system and method for providing interactive learning applications on a
television and managing the learning process is disclosed. The learning
management technology utilizes internet, television, and learning
management systems to allow a student to interactively access learning
content. The functionality of the learning management system may be
accessed on a television via a host server. The interactive application
further allows parents and teachers to monitor student performance,
change the learning content, control workflow, and send messages and
reminders to the student. The interactive application further allows
restriction of television viewing based on learning results or until an
assignment has been completed. The learning content may be copied or
downloaded onto a computer readable medium (e.g., a memory stick) from a
central location (e.g., a Kiosk). The learning content may then be copied
or uploaded to a television set-top box for execution by the television
set-top box. The viewer may interact with the learning application via a
remote control or other input device (e.g., a keyboard) coupled to the
television set-top box.
