Instructional Method for Courses

I meet with the Registrar's Office this week about identifying online computer-based, correspondance and video-based courses in Banner. We came up with a solution to identify these courses in the form SSASECT in the Instructional Method field. I populated the form GTVINSM with these values:

COR - Correspondance instruction
ONL - Online computer-based instruction
TRA - Traditional in-person instruction
VID - Video-based learning courses

When a new course is created, one of these four options will be available to select from in SSASECT. Since Spring 2007 courses were already in Banner, I did a non-standard update and set all the part of term 1 courses to TRA. The registrar's office will go through and change any other courses to ONL,COR,or VID where appropriate.

This new method will help us identify these types of courses much easier for SCARF, IPEDS, and any other reporting needs.
