You will also need to know into which sections each group of students will be scheduled. This information can be entered into comment field of the Master Schedule to facilitate the scheduling process.

| |
| − | ====Processes Found Under the '''Action''' Button====
| |
| − | #'''Master Schedule'''--Displays the Master Schedule Editor
| |
| − | #'''Reschedule Blocks'''--Allows you to reschedule students already assigned to blocks. This is used if classes have been added to or removed from a block.
| |
| − | #'''Single Course'''--Allows you to add a single class to all of the students in the same block. This does not change the block.
| |
| − | #'''Clear Student Block Numbers'''--This clears just the block number. NO schedules will be changed. You will NOT be able to auto-restore the assigned block numbers. Be certain this is what you want to do before clicking the button labeled 'YES'.
| |
| − | #'''Alternating Student Scheduling'''--Automatic scheduling method that assigns students to schedules in an alternating fashion.
| |
| − | #'''Sequential Student Scheduling'''--This method of scheduling students divides the students in groups (i.e. the first twenty students alphabetically are placed in the same block, the next twenty students are placed in the next block, etc.)
| |
| − | #'''Capability Student Scheduling'''--The GPA for students is used to assign students to the blocks. (i.e. Each white female with an 'A' average is assigned to a different block, then the program assigns each black female with an 'A' average to a different block, etc. working through all GPA ethnic groups.)
| |
| − | #'''Initialize Block Counts'''--Updates counts of students scheduled into the different blocks; it also updates counts in the Master Schedule Editor.
| |
| − | #'''Realign Blocks to Master Schedule'''--Compares information related to each section number found in the Block Fast Loader to the section numbers in the Master Schedule Editor. If any information is different, the block information is updated.
| |
| − | #'''Roll Current Year Blocks to New Year'''--Creates a copy of the current year blocks for the new year. You can only roll over one year to the next consecutive year. For example, you would not be able to roll over 1314 to 1516. Also, if you have already built at least one new block in the upcoming new year, the copy process will not work.
| |
| − | #'''Remove School(s) Blocks From Selected Year'''--Deletes all blocks for the selected year.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ====Edit the Master Schedule to Identify the Student Groups for Each Schedule Record====
| |
| − | '''Note'''--This is optional, but you can make the process of course selection (sections of courses with the same name) easier for schools with 2 or more groups of students per grade level. For example, this will prevent students in two groups from all being scheduled into the same section of a teacher's Language class which would make it look like the teacher is instructing 60 students instead of two groups of 30.
