▫️Scenario 3

This page will describe and demonstrate a scenario when using the Session Group and Class fields in a Paradigm Session event.

Overview

A scheduled unit with two possible sessions (with predefined combinations, Lecture + (Workshop 1 OR Workshop 2) or Lecture + Workshop). In the first case Lecture + (Workshop 1 OR Workshop 2), after selecting the Lecture 1 option, the student can still select 2 sessions from the Workshop (e.g. Workshop 1 or Workshop 2), e.g. when a student will select Lecture 1 (Monday) session, it will still allow them to select which of the 2 available Workshop sessions they would like to enrol, e.g. Workshop 1 (Monday) or Workshop 2 (Tuesday). The other case combination is that when the Lecture 2 (Wednesday) session is selected, it will just automatically select the Workshop 3 (Thursday) session.

NOTE:

You can add as many possible predefined session combinations (e.g. Lecture 1 + Workshop 1 OR Workshop 2 OR Workshop 3, etc.) as long as you code them following the same pattern as the scenario in this article. This way, the student can still see and choose from all the possible sessions you created but is still restricted to choosing one and only one session combination to proceed with the scheduled unit enrolment.

Example Scheduled Unit Details

Unit Code: BEM1004

Unit Name: Professional Practice 1

Available Sessions: Session Type: Lecture and Workshop with 3 possible session combinations:

Lecture 1 (Monday 9-11, Weekly) if selected, the student can still choose between the 2 Workshop sessions: Workshop 1 (Monday 1-3, Weekly) OR Workshop 2 (Tuesday 9-11, Weekly)

Lecture 2 (Wednesday 9-11, Weekly ) if selected should only select Workshop 3 Thursday (9-11, Weekly)

Session Type	Session Schedule	Group Number	Class Number
Lecture 1	Monday (09:00 AM - 11:00 AM)	1	1
Lecture 2	Wednesday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)	1	2
Workshop 1	Monday (1:00 PM- 03:00 PM)	2	3
Workshop 2	Tuesday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)	2	4
Workshop 3	Thursday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)	2	2

How to Code in Rapla

Create the sessions with the following group and class values or as specified in the table above. Refer to Paradigm Session for the workflow.

Lecture 1: Monday (09:00 AM - 11:00 AM)	Lecture 2: Wednesday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)

Workshop 1: Monday (1:00 PM- 03:00 PM)	Workshop 3: Thursday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)

Workshop 2: Tuesday (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM)

Rapla Calendar View

Paradigm Enrolment (Class Times) Screen

Once all your sessions in Rapla are successfully synchronised to Paradigm, you will now see the enrolment (Class Times) Screen, see sample screenshots below.

If the student will select Wednesday Lecture 2, it will automatically select the Thursday Workshop 3 session, as both sessions are of the same Class Number which is 2.

If the student selects Monday Lecture 1, it will give further options to select between Monday Workshop 1 or Tuesday Workshop 2.

SUCCESS:

In this scenario, the student can have 3 possible session combinations to choose from: Lecture 3 + Workshop 1, Lecture 1 + Workshop 2, or Lecture 1 + Workshop 2. Even if the students start selecting from the group 2 options (Workshops), the system will still guide them on which lecture options are required.
