Create simple schedule patterns for your school
Create simple schedule patterns that you might need to schedule courses in your master schedule. Simple schedule patterns are patterns you create for courses that meet on a fixed schedule of days and periods during a cycle. For example, courses that meet first period everyday.
Tip: You can use the following examples to define commonly used simple patterns: |
- A flat pattern for sections that meet the same period everyday.
- A flat pattern for sections that meet two periods in a cycle.
- A flat pattern for sections that meet every other day in a cycle.
To create a simple schedule pattern:
- When defining a schedule pattern, at the Schedule pattern style field, select Simple. The page displays the Days/Period grid:
-
- Click the boxes that represent the meeting times of courses that will use this pattern.
Note: After you identify the pattern, click Save. If you selected to explode the pattern, the system uses the one period/day combination that you map on the grid to create every possible matching pattern within the schedule on the list of patterns available on the Pattern Library side-tab. |
