How Intrinsiq Works - Class Management and Student Allocation
Classroom Management can be quite a tricky subject for most education providers, especially since everyone tends to have their preferred method of how to allocate students into their respective classes. In today’s article, we are going to focus on how Intrinsinq can help your school achieve this task in a much faster, efficient, and cost-effective manner.
Look at a particular week in 5 easy steps
Step 1: Access Class Manager
Step 2: Choose your Centre (if you have more than one), Choose Course Type (either choose a specific course or All if you want to see all the courses that will be running in a particular week), Choose Week Starting Date.
Step 3: Set the number of Classes needed, you can add or reduce classes depending on requirement and availability as you go along.
Step 4: Adjust Class Days and Times for each class (simply tick off those days and periods during which there will be no classes taking place)
Step 5: Click Save
It is a one-page function
Classroom management and the function of allocating students into classes are all found on one page on Intrinsiq. This is already something that is extremely helpful in saving time writing on paper or in going back and forth on different pages to find the information that you need.
What are the benefits of having a one-page function?
It saves time
It is more efficient when you are trying to forecast - especially when you need to look at all the different courses that will be running at a busy period
It allows you to plan as far ahead as you like. On the classroom allocation page for a particular week, you will only see those students who will be at the school and in the classes during that said week. This means that if you want to place Student A into Classroom 1 for Week 10, and move him into Classroom 2 for Week 15 because by that time you are anticipating that he would have moved up a level, such allocation will neither mess up your Week 10, nor your Week 15 allocation and planning.
It allows you to add or reduce classes as needed from the same page.
How far ahead into the future can one plan classes for?
The system accepts the start date you set up and any end-date in the future. This means that you can plan as far ahead as you like. Once saved, the whole setup will flow in the next week. This means that those students that have either finished their course will be removed automatically from class (in the weeks to come); those students that will move up a level, will be removed from their current class and reappear on the allocation list; those students that have added extra hours etc, will reappear on the allocation list; and those students that have no changes will be automatically enrolled in their classes in the future until any changes are implemented.
