Reschedule: Reschedule End Date<\/h2>\n

What is it?<\/strong>\u00a0You can now reschedule a particular date range of lessons with the Reschedule Tool. Previously, all<\/em> remaining lessons would be rescheduled.<\/p>\n

How it works.<\/strong>\u00a0Enter a\u00a0Reschedule End <\/strong>date. Only lessons between the Start and End date will be rescheduled.<\/p>\n

\"Reschedule
Reschedule End Date<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What is this for?<\/strong>\u00a0You may need to only move a subset of remaining lessons and not need to reschedule them all. For example, you may need to switch a week of lessons and a week of days off. Only those 2 weeks need to be adjusted, while the remaining lessons after those 2 weeks should not be altered. This feature will allow you to do just that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Reschedule: Force End Date<\/h2>\n

What is it?<\/strong>\u00a0You can now enforce a particular End Date on your rescheduled lessons, meaning rescheduled lessons will NOT go past that particular date. All rescheduled lessons will occur between the New Start Date and End Date and will be evenly spread across those days, which means multiple lessons may occur on a given date. Multiple lessons on the same day, if necessary, will ensure completion of all lessons by the forced End Date.<\/p>\n

How it works.<\/strong>\u00a0Set Force End Date?\u00a0<\/strong>to Yes.\u00a0<\/strong>Enter an End Date<\/strong>\u00a0by which lessons should be completed, for example, the Term’s End Date. When you reschedule, all lessons will occur on or before that End Date. In the example below, all lessons will be scheduled before or on May 31, 2017.<\/p>\n

\"Reschedule
Reschedule Force End Date<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What is this for?<\/strong>\u00a0For example, when you reschedule and push all your incomplete lessons into the future,\u00a0you can ensure that lessons do not go past the Term’s End Date. This feature will assist you in finishing school work on-time and be balanced across all school days. Again, that may necessitate multiple lessons on a single date.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Homeroom:\u00a0Classes To Lesson Plan Linking<\/h2>\n

What is it?<\/strong>\u00a0The Classes section of the Homeroom is now linked to the Add\/View Lessons screen.<\/p>\n

How it works.<\/strong>\u00a0Click on the class name.<\/p>\n

\"Homeroom
Click on Class Name to View Lessons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What is this for?<\/strong>\u00a0After reviewing progress, quickly jump into the Add\/View Lessons screen to make any adjustments to your lesson plan.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Classes: Completed Hours is Displayed<\/h2>\n

What is it?<\/strong>\u00a0The Classes view now tracks the Completed Hours per class.<\/p>\n

How it works.<\/strong> For every\u00a0completed<\/em> lesson within a class, the Time Spent is summed and displayed in hours:minutes<\/em> format.<\/p>\n

System Adjustments<\/span><\/h2>\n

In every software system in the world, the need to make tweaks\u00a0will always exist. Since some of you may have encountered these “un-documented features” (e.g. bugs), here is a list of items corrected.<\/p>\n
