Overview
“Instructional Methods” is a pre-built card available in Academic Scheduling specifically for Colleague Ethos customers.
The card gives users the ability to add and edit multiple instructional methods attached to a section.
This article speaks to how to use the field in the section editing modal; go here if you are an admin who needs to configure the card.
Instructional Method Select
Each card has an instructional method select (which is required for each row in the card).
The options for the instructional method select are populated from integration attribute mappings, which you can learn more about here.
Instructional Method Fields
The Instructional Methods card also can be extended to include custom fields.
Having Values Default from a Parent Course
The instructional method card in the section template can be configured to have its values default from the parent course when a new section is created. Learn how to do that here.
