Lesson Planners (also called as Course Planners or Academic Planners) allow faculty to plan the topics to be taught in each session available to them during the semester for a course/subject. Lesson Plans are also important academic artifacts to be maintained by academic teaching staff for each of their courses.

The plans, when reviewed against the actual topics being taught during a class allow a department head to gauge the level of adherence to the plan.

In onEdu, we have a concept of Master Lesson Plan. It is an approved template for each course that can be adopted by the faculty and modified to their needs. Master Lesson Plans become an asset of the organisation that can be used as a guideline for new faculty teaching a course for the first time.

The following setup and configurations are a pre-requisite to starting this process:

1. Scheme of subjects
2. Faculty are assigned to the subjects/sections
3. # of sessions for each subject is defined on the scheme of subjects

There are essentially 5 steps to this process before reports can be generated for analysis.

1. Create new master lesson planner and submit for approval
2. Approve master lesson planners
3. Create lesson planners
4. Enter Attendance
5. Review Lesson Planners (planned vs actual for a subject)
6. Review MIS report (planned vs actual for a day)

This feature can be accessed by either a faculty that has been assigned the subject in scheme of subjects for a section, or by anyone with a System Admin role.
