Timetable Data Collection
In order to successfully construct the University of Melbourne Class Timetable, the timetable office requires accurate information from departments on how their classes should be taught. In order to make the process of data capture as efficient as possible, the Timetable office has a number of programs that it uses to collect information from departments.
Activity Template Web Screens
The Activity Template Web Screens are used to capture the bulk of information about how subjects should be run, including preferred days, times, estimated sizes, teaching staff, number of repeat classes, number of streams, location and other resource requirements.
This information is generally collated and entered by Departmental Timetable Contacts.
Student Sets
Student Sets are used to prevent timetable clashes between subjects that should not be run concurrently. In certain circumstances it is necessary for faculties and/or departments to enter student set clash details for subjects that are new, or have altered semester from the previous year.
Staff Availability
The Staff Availability Screens are used to capture information about when Teaching Staff are availble to run classes.
This information can be entered either by the individual staff member, or the Departmental Timetable Contact
Changes to Subject Details
Activity Templates gather subject details from Student System. For any changes to the details of the subject (like Study Period, Combined classes, Tuition Patterns, Duration) visit Change of subject details and fill in 'Appendix 2 - Subject details Form'.
