To create a tutorial click on the "+ New" button in the upper right of the page. A dialog with the following form opens up:

Form to add a tutorial

  1. Slot: The slot part of the name of the tutorial. The name of the tutorial will be displayed in the format "Tutorial #slot" at certain locations in the applications (if a short form is required only the slot will be displayed).

  2. Tutor (optional): Assign a tutor to the tutorial.

    note

    Only users with the TUTOR role will be shown in the dropdown menu.

  3. Starting date: Select a date on which the tutorial starts. The starting date also determines the day of the week on which the tutorial is held. If the ending date was not changed it will be set to the starting date plus 12 weeks.

  4. Ending date: Set the ending date of the tutorial.

    note

    All dates between starting and ending date with the same weekday will be added to the list of dates.

  5. Date Selection: You can manually select dates in the calendar or remove already selected dates. The list of dates get prefilled after selecting a starting and an ending date.

    caution

    Date selection is not limited to the same weekday as the starting date.

  6. Starting time: The time on which the tutorial starts. If the ending time was not changed it gets set to the starting time plus 90 minutes.

  7. Ending time: The time on which the tutorial ends.

  8. Correctors (optional): You can assign one or more correctors to this tutorial.

    note

    Only users with the CORRECTOR role will be shown in the dropdown menu.

Form to generate multiple tutorials

  3. Weekday Selection: Select the day you want to add slots to. Each day tab shows the number of total tutorial slots that will be generated on this day. If the values of a weekday are invalid a red (!) is displayed instead.

  4. Weekday Prefix: The prefix for the slot names of this weekday. An example of a slot name will be shown below the textfield. It will update as you change the prefix.

    note

    Due to current limitations in the implementation sorting can not be done automatically.
