Course Link<br />

Description<br />

When you link two courses, students who sign up for both courses will<br />

be scheduled into the same section of each course through Scheduling<br />

<strong>Plus</strong>. If the student can't be scheduled into both sections of a linked<br />

pair, then it is considered by the Perform Scheduling program as a<br />

conflict situation. Course Links allow you to keep students with the<br />

same teacher for the entire year if you use semester courses. These<br />

linked courses do not need to meet during different semesters. If you<br />

link two courses meeting the same semester, for example a Physics<br />

course and a physics lab, then the student will be scheduled into the<br />

same section for both courses. Enter the link for only one of the two<br />

courses. For example, if course 101 is being linked to 102, enter 102<br />

in the link field for course 101 and leave the link field for course 102<br />

empty.<br />

NOTE: You cannot link 3 courses together by linking the first to the<br />

second and then the second to the third.<br />
