I've retrieved the course list. You have 3 active courses: 'Introduction to AI' (ID: course-v1:Org+AI101+2024), 'Advanced Python' (ID: course-v1:Org+PY201+2024), and 'Data Science Basics'.

Enroll me in the course course-v1:Org+AI101+2024.

Processing enrollment... Success! You are now enrolled in 'Introduction to AI'. You can start accessing the course materials immediately.

Show me the grades for user 'jdoe' in the Python course.

Fetching grades for 'jdoe'... In 'Advanced Python', the user has a current grade of 85%. All assignments are completed except for the final project which is pending.

Yes. Use the `get_user_grades` tool by providing the `course_id` and the student's `username`. The agent will return the grading breakdown for that specific user.
