Defining Modes of Instruction

To set up instruction modes, use the Instruction Mode component (INSTRUCT_MODE).

You need to set up instruction mode values that you use when you define courses and schedule classes. This section discusses how to define instruction modes.

Defining Instruction Modes

Access the Instruction Mode page (Set Up SACR, and then Product Related, and then Student Records, and then Curriculum Management, and then Instruction Mode, and then Instruction Mode).

Important:

Set up an instruction mode value of P for every institution in your system. You can enter any description and short description; however, you should use In Person for both fields. The system uses this value as a default for the Instruction Mode field on the Schedule of Classes - Basic Data page (when you enter the page in Add mode). In addition, you can generate rosters only for those classes with an instruction mode value of P on the Basic Data page.
