MAIN FEATURES OF THE PROGRAM:
The program is not too complex very convenient in use. It allows teachers to significantly reduce the time of school or college schedule creation with minimum effort.
The basic technology of work is presented in a treelike structure «Control» – the user needs to go through this tree from top to bottom branch by branch. Each option of the timetable is treated as a separate project. Having entered once the input data, it is possible to make copy of the project and finalize it (edit or test).
The program provides two modes of data management: manual and automatic ones.
— Manual mode.
Designed for experienced teachers who have developed their own technology for scheduling and who need just a convenient tool for these technologies. In this mode, the program displays a blank table where you can drag and drop the appropriate classes. All the restrictions imposed on the data input stage are displayed by the program on the screen or monitored during further working.
— Automatic mode.
Since the strict scheduling algorithm does not exist, this mode is only offering the options of automatic calculation. After achieving an acceptable result, you can edit it manually.
You can print out the complete timetable by groups or by the teachers directly from the program using the «File» menu. If you need additional adjustment of timetable appearance, you can export your results to Microsoft Excel.
