Quick start

Note: we've pre-loaded last academic year's data.

  1. Select a department. (Click to animate.)
    This filters the list of courses and sorts faculty teaching those courses to the top. All faculty are available through search.



  2. Select a faculty member. (Click to animate.)



  3. (One time only) Add expected total load for the faculty member. (Click to animate.)
    This lets the system track expected versus actual load.

  5. (Optional) Delete a section. (Click to animate.)


  6. Repeat.

Details

...

  • We've pre-loaded (see what we did there?) prior-prior year data. I.e. for academic year 2017-18 we've brought in data from 2015-16.

Faculty pane (left)

  • Faculty who have taught courses within the department in the last two years are sorted to the top. All faculty are available through search.
  • Inactive faculty--e.g. adjuncts off-contract--are shown with their load totals crossed out.
  • Total load is shown for each faculty member. These totals change color--yellow, green, red--as they approach and pass the expected total load for that faculty member.
  • Loading may be 'locked' if someone else is entering load for a given faculty member. This may not make the waiting easier but at least you know who you're impatient with.
  • If you think a faculty member is missing from the list please contact the provostyour dean's office and request that the faculty be made active.

Course pane (right)

  • Only courses within the department will be shown.
  • Each course listing shows the total number of sections loaded. Expand any listing to see load details.

...

  • Section code is optional. You'll want to add it to keep track of separate sectionsWe recommend adding it, though.
  • Default load is set to student credit hours for the course. You can adjust it.
  • As soon as you save a section it's reflected in the faculty and course columns.
  • If you think a course is missing from the list please contact ???your dean's office.
