Lesson Table - Syllabus |
|
The general description of the lesson table is followed by an explanation of the various functions:
General
Under "Master Data | Classes" you can distinguish between different school types by entering lesson tables.
A lesson table is a list of subjects with an indication of the minimum and maximum number of periods that should be taught in the corresponding classes. On the one hand it serves to check whether the classes of one school type have the desired number of lessons in the subjects and subject groups defined, on the other hand you can use the lesson tables to create lessons automatically.
Not all subjects need to be entered in the lesson table - just those that you wish to check. The distribution of periods in accordance with the lesson table applies to all the classes for which you have entered this particular lesson table in the master data.
You can access the lesson tables via “Lessons | Lesson Table (Syllabus)”.
The lesson table window is divided into two parts: on the left you can see a list of your lesson tables, on the right the table of subjects of the currently selected lesson table. The table of subjects consists of the following columns:
| • | Subject : Here you can use both the subject short names as well as implicit or explicit subject groups . When subjects or explicit subject groups are entered, the system checks to see whether the element exists in the master data. |
Tip: Element-Rollup
You can use element roll ups to include a whole list of subjects in one go by right-clicking on it and dragging it into the subject table.
| • | Per : In this column enter the minimum and maximum number of periods per week - separated by commas - which should be taught for this subject in the classes in question. The entry “3,4” in the “DE” line in the figure means that this subject should be taught to lower level classes (1a, 1b etc.) for a minumum of 3 periods per week and a maximum of 4. If the minimum and maximum values are the same you only need enter the value once - entering e.g. “3” is the same as entereing “3,3“. |
This field is only important for the <Create lessons> function.
Tip: Sorting
The table with the subjects for the lesson table can be sorted by each column just by clicking on the headings. You can also modify the order using drag&drop. Just click on the grey field in front of the subject name and, holding the mouse button, drag the line to the desired position.
Delete subjects
Clicking the toolbar icon <Delete> or pressing <Del> removes a subject from the table.
Copy subjects
You can use the clipboard to copy the table of subjects from one lesson table to a new one. Click on the table that you wish to copy and select the menu option “Edit | Copy” or press <Ctrl>+C. Then choose another lesson table and click on the subject table. Use the menu option “Edit | Paste” or the <Ctrl>+V key combination to insert the subject table.
Caution:
If the lesson table where you want to copy already contains a subject table, this will be overwritten.
Print and print preview
You can print both the grid on the left (lesson tables) as well as the one on the right (subject tables) depending on where your focus lies.
