I have 2 subjects Physical Education and Informatics in grade 6, study in 2 different rooms, each subject in 1 session will study 2 periods. And 1 English subject (3 periods) of grade 7 is taken in the morning. Please guide me to fulfill the following conditions:
1) two subjects of physical education and computer science study at the same time and consecutively.
2) When students study physical education and informatics, the classroom of that class will be empty for 4 periods, so I want to put 3 English lessons in the empty space of that class to get a classroom.
Thanks for everyone's help.
1) Either same starting time or consecutively? You have constraints: activities same starting time and constraint two activities grouped/consecutive.
2) If the room is empty, it will be available. You can force English there with some preferred room constraints.
Thank a lot. My school has 27 classes in 1 session, should I create 1 room for each class? (27 rooms)
I am not sure I understand correctly. If there are 27 different students sets and each one needs its own home room then, indeed, you need to add 27 rooms.
sorry my question was not clear. for example: In the morning I have Grade 6 classes consisting of 13 classes: 6A1, 6A2, 6A3..... 6A13. There will be several consecutive Informatics and Physical Education classes in the Informatics and Physical Education rooms, so there will be 4 consecutive empty periods in some Grade 6 classes. And I have several Grade 7 classes (7A1, 7A2.. ..) study English (3!classes) in the morning (on the contrary) but there is no classroom. I want to put those Grade 7 English classes in the classrooms of the classes with those 4 periods. So do I need to create classrooms with names 6A1, 6A2,.... 6A13) to be able to include English in those rooms? or is there any other way. Because I'm new to FET, so I don't understand.
I think you have a good idea. Yes, create rooms R6A1...R6A13. Home room for sets 6A1...6A13 are these respective rooms. Then add two rooms RI and RPE and preferred room constraints for Informatics and Physical Education in I, respectively PE. Preferred room constraints are overwriting the home room constraints.
Then preferred rooms for English of 7A1...7A13 in R6A1...R6A13. You can use activity tags for this.
