Configuring Parent Portal for Parent Teacher Conferences
Configuring Parent Portal for Parent Teacher Conferences
Signups for a
Parent Teacher Conference
are made by the parent. The parent will first pick the desired Teacher, then the Date, then the Time on that day. The teachers appearing in the dropdown will be based on the currently selected student. The dates will be limited to only days that the teacher has an open time slot. Only open time slots will be shown.
To add the widget for
parent teacher
conferences to a page, you would find it under Updatable > Parent Teacher Conf. The settings specific to this widget include:
Limit Signups
-
None
means there is no limit per
Course
Section or per Teacher
-
Once Per Student Per
Course
Section
means that the parent may meet with the same teacher multiple times. Useful if the time is needed to discuss course subject matter for each course.
-
Once Per Student Per Teacher
means that even if the student has multiple classes with the same teacher, the parents can still only sign up for that teacher once.
Max Signups Per Household
limits the total number of signups by the household across all their students.
Example
: if the household has 5 students, and the max signups per household
is
2, they will be able to sign up for at most 2 conferences. If the
setting
is empty, there is no limit.
Max Signups Per Student
limits the household signups based on how many students they have. If the
setting
is empty, there is no limit.
Read Only
is used if you just want parents to be able to see their signups without making changes. You would use this to make a reporting only page. If the current date is outside of the open date ranges for
parent teacher
conferences in Configuring
Marking Period Info
, then the widget will automatically be read-only.
Show All Students
when checked will show
parent teacher
conference sign-ups for all a household's students. If unchecked, only the currently selected student's signups will show up.
Limit Signups
,
Max Signups Per Household
,
