title: Activities

Activites are the things students are expected to attend for a module. These are from the student's perspective. The module window shows the currently planned activities as well as the expected hours based on the structured learning activities (SLA) planned for this module.

Activities

Name	Description	Example
Label	The name of the activity (student facing)	Computing Concepts
Type	The type of activity (lecture, online workshop, etc...)	Lecture
Duration	The length of each session (in hours)	2
Week Range	The weeks this activity will run in	1-5,7-9
Weeks	The total number of weeks the activity runs for (automatically calculated)	6

TIP If an activity does not need to be split (ie, there is one iteration required) leave the student count blank - the tool should show (everyone)

Mangaging Iterations

Once an activity has been created, you need to create iterations to tell the tool which staff and rooms should be attached to the activity. If you do not do this, the activity will not be scheduled.
