In the last few updates, we’ve taken our scheduling system to the next level by introducing powerful time constraint features for teachers, subjects, and classrooms. This enhancement ensures that our scheduling logic respects the unique availability of each resource, preventing conflicts and optimizing time utilization.
Key Features Added:
- Teacher Time Constraints:
- We’ve built a user-friendly interface where you can set specific availability for teachers. The interface allows selecting unavailable time slots for each day of the week. This is especially useful in preventing double-booking and ensuring that teachers are not scheduled outside their preferred hours.
- Subject Time Constraints:
- Similarly, we’ve introduced time constraints for subjects. Now, you can define when a subject can and cannot be scheduled, ensuring that the subject is only taught at optimal times. This feature helps in aligning subject schedules with both teacher availability and classroom constraints.
- Classroom Time Constraints:
- Classrooms are a critical resource, and their availability is now more finely controlled. You can set specific time slots when a classroom is unavailable, allowing the scheduling engine to automatically skip these times when assigning lessons.
- UI Enhancements:
- The interfaces for managing these constraints are intuitive, with day-of-week selectors, time slot grids, and clear indicators for recess periods. We’ve also styled the checkboxes to be more visually distinct, making the process of setting constraints straightforward.
Next Steps:
The next phase will focus on integrating these constraints into the schedule generation process, ensuring that all schedules are created with respect to the defined constraints. This will significantly reduce scheduling conflicts and improve the overall efficiency of timetable management.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to refine and enhance this powerful scheduling tool!
