Speaking of template classes ...
Template classes aim to optimize the work of teachers. Topic and topic items (content, activities, evaluations, among others) are registered on them and all changes made in the template class are transferred to the classes that use them as a base.
It is possible to use template and independent classes in a single subject, that is, the teacher can follow and use the model proposed by the institution in some classes and create an independent class organizing the contents and evaluations for other classes as he/she likes.
Template class use examples:
• When a teacher teaches the same subject in four classes, they can use a template class, so that all changes made in the template class are transferred to the classes that are based on this template without having the need to make changes in each class;
• The institution defines a content and evaluation template that all teachers from that subject need to follow, then the institution registers a template class and each teacher's class follows the template class proposal. All modifications in content and evaluations may only be performed in the template class and, automatically, are transferred to all the classes that follow the template.
It is possible to create multiple template classes for the same subject as well as deactivate topics and topic items of template classes. Changes in topics and topic items occurs in the same way as in independent classes and are transferred to the classes that follow the template.
Even with students studying the subject in a class, it is possible to include a template class for it, change the model class it uses or delete the template class and use its own topics.
Attention!
It is important to note that when including, changing or deleting the template class, students who were using the current topic structure lose the progress on these items, and it is necessary to run new topics that will enter into force in the class due to these changes.
