Create a Course Instance: Add InstanceStaff holding the Input & Amend Course Details role will be required to set-up and maintain course instances. Once a course is approved, a further transaction is required in order to enable students to be enrolled against it via Online Course Enrolment. This is the creation of a course instance also referred to as a ‘delivery’. As a course may be delivered more than once in the same session, multiple instances of the course can be created. Substantial data is held against the course delivery including:
The following example describes the EUCLID process for creating a course instance.
Step 1 From the Course Summary screen scroll down to Course Instances. In this example there are currently no course instances created for the course, to create a course instance click the button. NB It is not possible to create, amend or delete courses instances for previous academic years including 2009/10 as these will continue to be maintained through WISARD. For more information see the Transition from WISARD to EUCLID section of the Online User Guide.
Step 2 The following fields must be completed:
Complete the fields with the relevant course instance details and click the button.
Step 3 The Add Breakdown of Assessment Methods screen is displayed:
Key in the breakdown of assessment method as a % into the field available. The total must equal 100%. Click the button. Step 4 The Add Breakdown of Learning and Teaching Activities screen is displayed:
The screen is provided to record the breakdown of Learning and Teaching activities for the course. The Total Hours displayed at the top corner of the screen is calculated automatically as the number of Module Credits*10 (e.g. for a 20 credit course the Total Hours will equal 200 hours). The purpose of this screen is to define how the Total Hours is broken down into
The total of the section A: Scheduled Learning and Teaching is the sum of its sub-categories (e.g. Lecture Hours, Seminar/Tutorial Hours etc). The figure that appears in C: Directed Learning and Independent Learning Hours is automatically calculated as the difference between the Total Hours minus the sum of section A & B. So for example, if Total Hours = 200 and A: Scheduled Learning and Teaching = 110 and B: Placement/Study Abroad = 40, C: Directed Learning and Independent Learning Hours will equal 50. Click on the button to record the details. Step 5 Step 6
