Overview
Adding new appointments within your Paradigm Session/Event is possible as long as you are allowing the student to attend ALL of the new appointments that you’ve added under that session/event. Note that when you are using the Session Group/Class in your scheduling, all the new appointments added within a Paradigm Session/Event will automatically inherit the group and class number values being set for that session/event. This knowledge article will discuss all the possible features available under the Rapla Appointments section.
BE ADVISED
When creating sessions with the group and class number values in Rapla with multiple appointments, and you don’t want the student to attend ALL of the appointment series in that session/event, you have to make sure that each unique group and class number combination is created as one Paradigm Session/Event. Each new appointment created within a session/event will inherit the group and class number values being set for that session/event.
Add New Appointment
Sample Scenario
Given the sample event created below, a lecture (BEM1008) with a weekly event every Monday at 9:00-11:00AM. Take note that this event has no Group and Class Number values. For the purposes of demonstrating how to add a new appointment as a repeating event, with the currently set event for the Monday lecture, you wanted to add another Wednesday lecture with the same number of times as your Monday lecture. With this set, you want the student to enrol in the Monday and Wednesday lectures every week for the duration of your repeat event.
Also, take note how in the Course Plan that Monday session event will look like:
How to Add a New Appointment with Repeating sessions
With the existing Paradigm Event/Session created above, if you want to add a new repeating appointment you want the student to automatically be enrolled: based on the sample scenario above – the Monday Lecture Session, will also automatically enrol the Wednesday Lecture.
Take note of how in the Course Plan that Wednesday repeating lecture session event will look like with the Monday lecture:
Once the student will select the Unit Code BEM1008, the student will automatically be enrolled to the Monday and Wednesday repeating lectures.
