[Academic] Fwd: IMPORTANT Timetabling Info - 2016-17

[Nigel Langford]

Dear All,

Further to Kirsten’s email can I remind you of the Department’s and Faculty's decision to ensure that all teaching in both semesters is to be completed by the end of week 10 and that week 11 is to be used for revision. The revision can be in the form of revision tutorials but there is to be no teaching of new material in week 11.

Also if you are teaching a lab class and you need to do some preparatory work with the students this can be done in week 0 but you must let Kirsten know so that she can request appropriate rooms. If you do need to use week 0 please avoid the Friday morning of that week as the First Day Talks will take place on those days.

I will start to organise meetings between the staff who teach the various subject groupings in each year so that we can identify areas of overlap which can be reduced.

Nigel

Hi

The timetable will close on Friday 20 May, 2016 and prior to this I must have all the Physics teaching requirements entered onto the system for Semester 1 and 2.

The department has met with Maths and Education to discuss the timetable and to try and find a way to avoid clashes etc.  This may mean a change to days and times moving forward.  Please be as flexible as possible as it can be difficult to schedule classes for our joint students.

You should be aware of changes to the timetable as follows:

Semester 1: University Weeks 8 -18 (Week 8 commencing 19/09/2016)
Semester 2: University Weeks 25-35 (Week 25 commencing 16/01/2017)

For those of you sharing teaching, please note that the teaching is now 11 weeks instead of 12 weeks and you will need to notify me of who is teaching what and when.

I hope to have a spreadsheet of what is planned emailed to you beginning of next week.  I would also ask you to ensure that your room requirements are correct so that I can roll these forward.

Three weeks seems like a long time, but I can assure you it will go much quicker than we would like, so please respond to my emails as quickly as you can and check your arrangements with me prior to Friday 20 May.

Many thanks

Kirsten
