Schedule Process

Schedule Process u Academic Calendar Set u Each Department Has Similar But Unique Processes For Developing Schedule u Use Past History u “Know” What Classes Fill First u “Keep In Head” What Classes Are Offered Each Fall Or Spring u Only One Area Keeps A Two-Year Schedule Of Classes And Evaluates Past Offerings With Data

Schedule Process u Preliminary u Full-Time List Of Classes Developed Faculty Input u When Faculty Are Available To Teach u Input On Classes Preferred u Adjunct Faculty Input u Consistent Adjuncts In Some Areas And Their Availability To Teach u Availability Of Adjuncts To Schedule u Classes Scheduled Without Faculty Assignments u Area Coordinators

Schedule Process u Room Search Begins u “The Scavenger Hunt” u Some u Rooms Are Owned By Some Departments These Are Scheduled First u Some Areas Have Basically No Space And Have “Dibs” On Rooms u Schedule In These Rooms u Administrative Assistants Start Looking For Rooms And Calling In Favors u u Some Even Having To Go Look At Rooms Sections Simply Not Assigned Rooms

Schedule Process u Schedule u Copies Entered Into Computer System Circulated For Review And Proofing u Again, And Again, And Again … u Do Not Appear To Have A Formal Process For Changes During Review u Adding And Cancelling Classes u Signatures For Changing, Adding, Etc.

Schedule Process u Schedule Ready For Publication u Final Proof u Changes Still Being Made u Post To Web
