Do not enter zero (0) as a section number. And as a courtesy and easy visual to mark sections, place a W in front of the section # for web/online sections, a U for off-campus sections, and X for independent studies classes. (ie) W01, U02, X01. Use letters in section numbers only when needed as traditional section numbers are critical when scheduling exams due to the exam scheduler ie. (01A/01B/01C). Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 4 Credit Units and Billing Hours in SSASECT NEVER change the credit units or billing hours listed on the SSASECT page. If you think they are incorrect contact classbuild@usask.ca for verification prior to changing them. Also NEVER touch the tuition waiver button at the bottom of the SSASECT page. Term and CRN 201409 is T1 (Fall) and 201501 is T2 (Winter). If the class was rolled, the CRN is the same as last year for the same term. A newly built class will have a newly created CRN. (Note: Class sections built after the roll date for the previous Spring/Summer will not have rolled.) POT (Part of Term) Within each term there are Parts of Term. Each POT has its own add/drop/refund rule dates. There are multiple POTs, but sections can only be attached to one POT. In the example, POT:1 indicates that CHEM 112 (01A) was a full term class in the 200709 term. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 5 201409 and 201501 POT Default Dates are as follows: Code 201409 Parts Of Term Description Start date 201501 Parts Of Term End Date Length Code Description Start date End Date Length 1 Full Term 03-Sep-14 05-Dec-14 13 1 Full Term 05-Jan-15 08-Apr-15 13 IS Full Term Independent Study 03-Sep-14 05-Dec-14 13 IS Full Term Independent Study 05-Jan-15 08-Apr-15 13 IS1 T1 Part of Multi-Term IS Class 03-Sep-14 08-Apr-15 26 IS2 T1 Part of Multi-Term IS Class 03-Sep-14 08-Apr-15 26 MT1 T1 Part of Multi-Term Class 03-Sep-14 08-Apr-15 26 MT2 T1 Part of Multi-Term Class 03-Sep-14 08-Apr-15 26 22-Sep-14 28-Nov-14 9 PH 19-Jan-15 27-Mar-15 9 PH3 30-Mar-15 05-Jun-15 9 PH POT Default Dates These are the dates that the POT will default to the section when the class roll is performed (Note: for classes that are attached to a POT but do not conform to the default dates, these dates must be changed to the real dates before registration e.g. MED). For classes that go over 2 terms (multi-term classes), the Start and End date values of the class will show from Sept-Apr for both POT=MT1 and POT=MT2, even though in the Class Meeting Dates and Times you only use Sep to Dec dates for MT1 and Jan to Apr dates for MT2. Note: It is very important that the POT dates match the chart above. Please do not change the POT default dates unless it is to correct an inaccurate date. If your class starts a few days after or before the date above (max. 7 days), leave the POT date but adjust the meeting time. If your class has a different start and end dates than what is listed in the POT chart, please set up as an open learning class; however, do not change a POT class to Open Learning or vice versa. The dates affect other university processes (T2202’s, student loans, etc.), therefore is very important that they are correct. (This note excludes Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Medicine) Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 6 Example of a multi-term class Note 1: POT default dates for both MT1 and MT2 sections are Sept-Apr; however, each multi-term meeting time line will have a Start Date and End Date associated with the term as follows: Sept-Dec for POT=MT1 and Jan-Apr for POT=MT2. Note 2: Open Learning sections will not have POTs or POT default dates; they will be empty. Each Open Learning section has its own add/drop/refund rule dates calculated based upon percentages and so do not have an assigned POT. For building these sections, Open Learning Class Maintenance training will be provided by Student Information Systems. Please contact sis_support@usask.ca to request training. Schedule Type This is the classification of the section according to the type of instruction. If this is incorrect or if this code needs to be changed, please first consult with SESD staff.

If the first half is a LAB, then the second half will be a ghost lab (GLB) Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 8 etc. Enrolment Please indicate the actual number of students you want to enroll in this class based upon past enrolment trends. We no longer accept “No Limit” as legitimate or values that contradict previous enrolment trends. Enrolment fields “Section Enrolment Info” are found under the option menu in SSASECT. The first number is the maximum enrolment and the second number (in brackets) is the actual enrolment. Note: some classes have been broken into multiple sections to facilitate seat restrictions. The classes that have been broken down into multiple sections are represented by having an alpha character in the last place of the section number (e.g. 01A, 01B, 01C…). Each of these sections will have a separate enrolment number based upon your dept/college’s decisions for seat restrictions. The example below is a class that will remain cross listed as this class has multiple sections in different locations. Classes that need certain seats saved for specific colleges, we encourage to be set up as reservations (more information on pages to follow).

Setting up reserved seating will reduce the number of class sections that you will have to maintain. SESD offers training to class maintenance staff to help with converting crosslisted class sections to reservations. Please contact sis_support@usask.ca for training. Restricted To Is this section restricted in any way? If the section is available or unavailable to any particular college/program/degree/major, use the appropriate radio button in SSARRES < under SSASECT options menu.> plus the college, program, degree or major that is restricted. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 11 If you have reserved seating groups in your class sections then registration restrictions must allow the students represented in the reserved seats groups into the class section. Night Classes (Changes noted in red) Is this section a night class? If yes, the class has to be identified as a night class. To designate a night class section (for all classes beginning at 17:30 or later), an N should be entered into the “Session” field on the main SSASECT screen. SSASECT This is necessary for determining the special exam schedule for night classes. Night class meeting times beginning at 17:30 should end at 19:50 and meeting times beginning at 19:00 should end at 21:20. Due to the teaching day limitations on the 2014-2015 Academic Calendar: o Term 1(201409) Monday night classes need to be built as 2h 40m (Begin at 17:30 End at 20:10 or Begin at 19:00 End at 21:40) o Term 1(201409) Tuesday night classes need to be built as 2h 30m (Begin at 17:30 End at 20:00 or Begin at 19:00 End at 21:30) o Term 2 (201501) Thursday night classes need to be built as 2h 30m (Begin at 17:30 End at 20:00 or Begin at 19:00 End at 21:30) Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 12 Open Studies Open Studies no longer exists, please remove all reservations and registration restrictions referencing to Open Studies. Release Unused Permission Spaces Unused spaces, (not approval spaces) may be manually released for general registration at the department’s discretion. Link If this is a child section (LAB, TUT or SEM) and registration will be enforced in the child section if the student registers in a parent LEC section, then a Link ID (SSASECT) and Section Links group (SSADETL) will have to be placed on each section that is part of this linked group. Please refer to the “How To Link” training manual on linking parent/child classes. In SiRIUS the two forms where links are created are SSASECT and SSADETL (Under SSASECT options menu) SSASECT SSADETL The links display on the class verification report as Campus Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 13 The Campus through which this section will be taught. If this is an Independent Studies section (schedule type = IS, IS1 or IS2), then the campus = OFF. The OFF code is used for sections offered through the U of S but student fees are calculated as if the student was taking the class off campus (in conjunction with the OFF Campus Student fee attribute). If the section is held through a regional college, the regional college code would be inserted here. (e.g. WGST 110 (W61) is held through Parkland Regional College so campus code = PL) Campus Codes AU CH CT CU FN KI LA LL ME MJ Aurora College Cypress Hills Regional College Carlton Trail Regional College Cumberland Regional College First Nations Univ of Canada Kindersley La Ronge Lakeland College Melfort SIAST - Palliser Campus MU NB NL NT NW OFF PA PL PW QUE Muenster North Battleford Northlands College Northwest Territories North West Regional College Off-campus Site SIAST - Woodland Campus Parkland Regional College Prairie West Regional College Quebec RE SA SC SE SI SK SP WE YO SIAST - Wascana Campus SIAST - Kelsey Campus Swift Current Southeast Regional College Saskatchewan Indian College U of S -Saskatoon Main Campus St. Peter's College Weyburn Yorkton Meeting Time Box This displays the meeting times of the section. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 14 If the section has no meeting times (e.g. Independent Studies) then most of the fields in this box will be blank. The fields that must have values are Mtg Type (always CLAS) Start Date, End Date, Schedule Type (Schd), hours per week (Hrs/Wk), Sess Cred and Sess In in SSASECT/Meeting Times. Start Date/End Date for Meeting Times These are the start and end dates of the meeting time. Remember, if it is a multi-term class, the POT default dates on the main SSASECT form will be Sept-Apr but the meeting time start/end dates on the meeting time record will only span the term (Sept – Dec if the POT=MT1 and Jan – Apr if the POT=MT2). If there are no set meeting times, indicate the total contact hours per week. If there are no contact hours (or you do not track them), then enter 0. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 15 Start/End Time These are the start and end times of the meeting. Each different Start/End Time has a separate line. E.g. If the section meets every Wednesday from 0830-0920 and Thursdays from 1130-1150 then you would have two meeting time lines. If the section meets every Monday and Wednesday at 0830-0920 then you would require only one meeting time line as both dates can be entered on one line as long as all other information remains the same. Include both the start and end times of all classes and lab/tutorial sections, using the 24 hour clock format. Use the actual end time, e.g. 08:30-09:20 instead of 08:30-09:30. Days of the Week Please indicate the days of the week for which this meeting time line is relevant in the SSASECT/Meeting Time block. The codes are M-Monday, T-Tuesday, W-Wednesday, R-Thursday, F-Friday, S-Saturday and U-Sunday Schedule Type This is the schedule type of this meeting time line. It can differ from the main schedule type of the section. E.g. If you have a LEC that also has a LAB meeting time, you would have two meeting time lines; one that shows the information of the LEC meeting time (schedule type = LEC) and a second that shows information for the LAB (schedule type = LAB) The second meeting time line would have a different schedule type than the main schedule type defined against the section as a whole. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 16 Bldg/Room Information Leave the Building and Room fields blank unless your Department/College is responsible for the building and room space assignments for your area. If you enter either one of these fields please ensure that you enter both. Room Scheduling will schedule all other classroom space for you. If the section is held through a regional college, place the exact location here (e.g. Nipawin, North Battleford) and the regional college code in the campus field (see page 12-13). (e.g. If the section is held through Cumberland Regional College and the exact location is Melfort, the Campus = CU and the Building = Melfort) Instructors In SSASECT/Instructor, instructors are added to classes. You may enter the instructor’s NSID and the instructor’s name should appear after you tab. Please refer to your training manuals for adding instructors to sections. (TAs should not be assigned to sections but if the section is a LAB, then a Lab Instructor may be assigned). The first instructor listed will always default as the primary instructor and be given 100% responsibility of the section (Primary Indicator box will be checked). You can change the primary instructor if necessary (see the class maintenance training manual for directions). Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 17 GENERAL INFORMATION FOR COLLEGES AND DEPARTMENTS Child Sections (labs, tutorials, seminars) If there is more than one section of a lab, tutorial or seminar for a class, students will be required to register separately for the Lecture and for the Child Section. In these cases the Child Sections will be listed as separate sections, with the section # prefixes: L (lab), T (tutorial) or S (Seminar), e.g. MATH 110 L01. You must indicate through the use of links (page 11-12) whether specific lab, tutorial or seminar section(s) are linked with any particular main section(s) of a class. Some Child Sections may not require a separate registration. In such cases there will be no separate section and no section number. List the time of the lab/tutorial/seminar in the meeting time box and indicate “Lab”, “Tutorial” or “Seminar” in the meeting time box Schedule Type field. Setting Class Titles 1. The short title field (30 characters in length) exists on SSASECT and is referred to as “Title”, rather than “Short Title”. This is the title that is displayed on the official transcript and the advising transcript. 2. The long title field exists on SSASYLB. This title displays on the self service class lookup for registration purposes and also on the unofficial transcript available through self service. Special Topics courses require unique class titles to be set. Therefore, these titles should be changed in both the title field on SSASECT and Section Long title field on SSASYLB . This way, students will see the specific class titles both when they register and when they receive their official transcript. NOTE: SSASYLB only necessary for Special Topics Classes SSASYLB - Entering long title and technical requirements (pre- and co-requisites) 1. From the options menu in SSASECT, select Section Syllabus Form (SSASYLB) (it’s located 3rd from the bottom) 2. Click Next Block. For Special Topics classes, do not Copy from Course. Instead type in the long title in SSASYLB and press SAVE. You can then enter the shortened title on the main SSASECT page and press SAVE. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 18 3. Click Next Block 3 more times until you are in the Technical Requirements area. Type in any pre- and co-requisites to your class. Press SAVE. Without doing these steps students will not be able to see any of this information GENERAL INFORMATION FOR COLLEGES ONLY Classes Offered In Other Colleges If there are any classes offered by other colleges that are required/recommended for your students, you should contact the appropriate college(s) to work out the details for those classes. The information for these classes will only need to be built/maintained by the college offering the class. Credit Unit Maximums - Please email changes to classbuild@usask.ca SiRIUS can limit the number of credit units in which a student can register in for a given term. The credit unit maximum can be set by college or program. They will remain the same as last year unless SESD is notified of any changes by April 15th. All Credit Unit maximums will end with .1 (e.g. 15.1 Max CUs). This is to allow the student to register in 0 academic CU classes that have 0.01 operational CUs to accommodate other functionality in SiRIUS. SiRIUS will not allow the maximum for the term to be exceeded. For example, if the credit limit for a term is 18, a student would not be allowed to register in a class that would make their total credit units (for that term) exceed 18. A college may approve a student taking more than the maximum number of credit units for their college. If approved, a staff member would have to increase the maximum for that student. A college staff member who has access to the Registration system could make this change. Once approval is granted and the maximum is increased, the student would be able to register for additional classes (up to but not exceeding the new limit). And remember, NEVER change the credit units or billing hours on the main SSASECT page. And never touch the tuition waiver button on the bottom of SSASECT. If you think they are incorrect contact classbuild@usask.ca. Guidelines and Information for 201409/201501 Class Build Modified on 11 Feb 2014 Page 19
