When to Setup Pathways

Modified on Fri, 13 Mar at 1:21 PM

Pathways are used to manage Programme content and provide additional functionality options with regards to managing and sharing lessons.

Only one Pathway can be assigned to a class. The pathway assigned to a class can be changed at any point. Additional Pathways can be created with new lessons, a copy of existing lessons, or may share the same pool of lessons.

Pathways are not a required part of the programme setup process. Unless the functionality Pathways has to offer is required it is recommended they not be setup.

Scenario	Example	Pathways clone option
All teachers use the same set of lessons, resources, homework and assessments. Lessons are taught in the same order for all classes.	All classes need to be taught the same lesson content and teach lessons in the same order.	Pathways not required
All teachers use the same set of lessons, resources, homework and assessments. Lessons are taught in a different order depending on the class.	One class has less lessons then the others as they fall on public holidays or non-teaching days. Lessons are taught in a different order. Different homework is set for each class	Use existing lessons
Teachers start with their own set of lessons. The lessons are a copy of the lessons on another pathway. Lessons may be edited, removed or reordered without affecting classes of different Pathways. Homework is unique to the Pathway.	There is an existing set of lessons and teachers would like their own set to edit without affecting other teachers. The teacher would like to add some of their own unique lessons or drop existing lessons. Different homework is set for each class.	Copy all lessons
Teachers start with a new set of lessons. These can then be edited without affecting classes on different Pathways	When teachers would like to create their own set of lessons from scratch.	Create new lessons
