To create a daily timetable, several conditions have to be fulfilled:
| • | The substitute teachers shall be able to teach the subject that was cancelled or they shall know the class. |
| • | The substitution shall fit into the regular timetable of the teacher. |
| • | Open substitutions shall be primarily filled with shifts. |
| • | The information shall be brought quickly and easily to the receivers (students, teachers, office, parents). |
| • | Some cancelled periods shall be calculated negatively to the teacher's account, some not. |
| • | Statistics with self defined criteria shall be easily accessible. |
| • | Etc. etc. |
The bigger the school the harder it is to answer all these questions, mostly under time constraint. Many substitutions have to be dealt with faultlessly in the morning within a few minutes and the information has to be transmitted to students and teachers in time .
The use of the module cover planning - possibly in connection with the modules Break supervision and Info-Timetable or with WebUntis - facilitates a clear, quick and, above all, faultless editing of the daily substitutions and their print or electronic display . The hanging out of the current lists is a thing of the past.
The other crucial function of the module cover planning is the keeping of substitution statistics and their evaluation. This can be done following either self defined criteria or criteria specified by the authorities.
This manual, on one hand, shall enable a quick working in into the module and on the other hand it shall offer a complete description of all functions. Because of that it is divided into two parts.At first a short introduction will lead you through the crucial aspects of the module cover plannning. You become acquainted with the most common functions of the module cover planning and you get an overview of how this module is functioning.
The second part focuses on all functions of the module in detail and the interfaces to other modules like break supervision are explained.
You can get very particular information, like the substitution statement for a specific country or federal state from your Untis partner .
