COVID19 Scheduling Response

Effective Fall 2020

Updating Classes for Fall that are Moving to Remote Instruction and Distance Learning.

Update the class notes and add appropriate special designators and fees:

Modify the class and add appropriate special designators, fees and notes as follows, depending upon the type of class:

  1. Class was in the classroom 100%; determine if A or B applies:
    1. Class is being converted to a fully online class – add appropriate special designators (DL, WP) approved online class notes from Academic Services. To that note, add the following: “This class has been converted from face-to-face to online instruction.” (Please note: instructor must meet criteria for being approved for a fully online class.) Updates course schedule line(s) modifying days, times, building and room to ONLINE (see Class Scheduling Manual).
    2. Class is being converted to remote instruction – add special designators (GB, T7) to the class, and apply class note RI (Remote Instruction - already in PantherNet). You will need to add the print indicator B to the three lines of the class note. There are RI note versions for credit and noncredit. Leave the class schedule line as far as days, times, and dates, but convert building and classroom to TBA. Add the special fee COMP - this adds the special fee to the class at a flat $10 per class. Other course special fees can remain. Please email Ginger Pedersen or Maria Lopez if the class does not allow the adding of the COMP fee. In that case, we will update the course dictionary.
    3. Special for Bachelor’s classes taught fully online (not remote instruction) by adjuncts – use special designator combination of (DL, BA).
    4. If the class you are updating had a class note, you must manually add the note about remote instruction to the bottom of the existing note:

    This class has been converted from face-to-face___

    to remote instruction. Please see the Web page at___

  2. Class was a hybrid class converting to remote instruction:
    1. Remove the HY or WH special designator.
    2. Determine if A or B applies under number 1 above. Remove the existing class note and replace with the appropriate note A or B under number 1.

    Please note: a traditional Hybrid class can remain where the part that was in the classroom can be moved to remote instruction, and the other half of the class is online. Please contact eLearning for more information.

  3. Class was a component class converting to remote instruction:
    1. Remove the WC special designator.
    2. Determine if A or B applies under number 1 above. Remove the existing class note and replace with the appropriate note A or B under number 1.
    3. The COMP fee should already be on the class.
