Semester Course Scheduling

...

  • Subject Term Planning-you first must indicate that a particular course will run during a particular term. You will also note who is teaching.

  • Subject Classroom Planning-use this to indicate what the schedule for a particular course will be and as well as what room (or type of room) needed.

  • Instructor Assign-this is where you will add the instructor(s) for the course. This is required for the instuctor to be linked with the course's CANVAS site as well as to allow them access to the grade sheets


Special Subject Numbers

The CRE has some special subject numbers that act like "shells" into which content can be dropped. These numbers can be used to run a new course without having to have it be assigned a permanent number or go through the review process. (If a course is continually running under a special topic number, a permanent number might be a better alternative). The units are variable and will be determined by the faculty member.

The grading method is fixed though so if the course is to be letter graded, make sure you pick a special topic number with that attribute

11.965-P/D/F
11.S966-Letter Grade
11.S967-
11.S968-Letter Grade
11.S969-Letter Grade
11.S970-Letter Grade

Have the instructor create a course description and post on the CRE web site here: https://cre.mit.edu/special-topics-courses/ You will then link that in term planning when you are selecting that course to run in a particular term. This will be how the content of the course gets communicated to interested students.
