Planning for Success
February March April May June July-Aug
Begin design of your master schedule
Enter course requests
Submit track config. to IT Depart.
Verify track config
Begin error checking
Begin construction of Master Schedule
Initial load of students
Check schedule for errors

Planning for Success Order of operations
1. Define your track setup2. Enter course requests3. Determine the number of sections for each
course4. Create your Schedule Map5. Begin the setup in “Master Builder”6. Use Master Builder to enter sections7. Load the students p.2

schedule is driven by student course requests
prep periods or teams determine design of the schedule

Teams
p. 13, E
IDT’s Content Teams group of teachers from
different subject areas that share a common prep period and a common group of students
group of teachers from a similar subject area that share a common prep period
Impact Loss of flexibility for
students with singleton conflicts
Moderate depending upon number of teams Impacts seats per hour

IDT TeamsPros Cons
Provide teachers with a common prep period for planning and student managementAllow interdisciplinary
curriculum design
Student options for electives become limitedStudents have a greater
likelihood of being tracked through team and non/team sections

Building “Multi-Term” Schedules
Q: Why do I want to link classes together?
A: Because students follow certain patterns when they move from term to term
Q: How am I going to do this?
A: Using two different methods:
Section Linking
Loader Rules

Section Linking
Pros ConsZangle follows the rule 100%
of the timeOnly need to put in course
request for first course
Must build a section link for EACH sectionMust rebuild section links
each time you edit the schedule and export the results
Associating multiple sections with each other. A student scheduled for one linked section will automatically receive the other sections.

Loader Rules
p. 11, G
Pros ConsCan create before/after rulesCan keep groups of teachers
togetherRules can be saved for next
year
Does not connect individual classes
Loader Rules: A method of creating rules for when a student is scheduled for a course. Loader rules can specify what classes a student should take before they are scheduled for a course. Does not apply to individual sections.

Order of placing sections when using the Master Builder
Constraints / Locked Singletons and/or DoubletonsAll singletons … use Conflict Summary
All doubletons … use Conflict Summary
Three Section Courses … use Balance Summary
Etc... (please see p. 15 for complete list)

Next StepsBegin development of your master schedule mapContact ICC if piloting a new courseSubmit your track setup to IT (3/15)Determine if you will use section linking. If so, define root coursesDetermine if your schedule will include teams. What subject areas will be included? How will the students be assigned to a team?
