Program

The Program section will show the boxes for the total of sessions of the subject. Each of them can be edited to add the content.

You will be able to establish blocks of sessions.

The content of a session

While editing a session, you can find the following fields:

Type of session
Sustainability topics
Introduction field
A button to edit/add materials (*in case there is a Metasyllabus, there may be proposed or mandatory materials inherited from it)
Additional text field
Indications for Planning field

To add materials, simply click on the "Edit materials" button that appears in each of the sessions.

Type of session

You should select the type of session for each session. You can select all the sessions type at once or edit each session to select the type.

Live in-person

Live online
Asynchronous
Discussion Forum (only blended programs)

The first two correspond to synchronous category and the other to Asynchronous. Please remind, Discussion forum is reserved only for Online/Blended programs. For an In-person program, forum will be considered as an Asynchronous session.

Virtual Reality Material

Depending on the type of session selected, the option to add Virtual Reality Material will be visible. This option is not available when the session type is Discussion Forum.

In order to be able to add these materials, you have to leave the option clicked.

The inclusion of Virtual Reality Materials is done by editing the session materials in two ways: Add from IE Knowledge Catalog or Add material from external sources.

Distribution of the sessions

Introduce the desired distribution for the planning of the sessions, that is to say, when two or more sessions need to be shceduled on the same date, you need to combine them in the syllabus. Sessions must be single (1h 20') except when, due to the academic content, double sessions (2h 50') are required but they should be minimized.

In case the content for two or more sessions is the same, but they do not need to take place on the same date, you should not combine them in the syllabys and should paste the same content on each.

You can combine or divide the sessions, as necessary.

CHANGING THE ORDER OF THE SESSIONS

Once the sessions have been filled out and if you want to change the sequence, they can be simply dragged to the desired destination.

The session number will be automatically changed by campus as they are realigned.

Co-teaching

For co-teaching subjects, the syllabus will show the option to select the professor/s who will teach each session.

Sustainability Topics

In order to indicate the Sustainability content covered during a session, sustainability topics will displayed for you to choose one or more. It is not mandatory to include them.

We encourage you to reach the IE Sustainability Department members, so they can advise about this matter.
