MAUI Offerings Planner Now Open for Summer 2021

This message is intended for Academic Departmental Administrators.

MAUI Offerings Planner is now open and available for you to access for Summer 2021 course offerings! You can update and submit your Summer 2021 course offerings at any time from now until the end of the day on August 10, 2020 in MAUI .

The course offerings that you submitted for Summer 2020 have been replicated to the Summer 2021 session. Please note that many sections did not replicate due to being cancelled during Summer 2020; you will need to create these sections again, or copy them from Summer 2020, if you want to offer those sections in Summer 2021. Override start and end dates for off-cycle courses also replicate; Summer 2021 off-cycle dates need to be checked and/or adjusted by the department before submitting to workflow. The following items never replicate: University Classrooms, textbooks, instructors for non-IND sections, room preferences, and midterm exam section information.  

For Summer 2021, the first day of classes for the 4-, 6-I, and 12-week sessions will be on a Tuesday in accordance with Academic Calendar dates; Mondays will be the last day of MyUI registration for these sessions. For Summer 2021, the first day of classes for the 4-, 6-I, and 12-week sessions is Tuesday, May 18; Monday, May 17, is the last day of MyUI registration for these sessions.

Room Type Ideal field located in the time/location area in MAUI Planner is for master campus planning purposes only and does not mean that the course will be assigned to the desired room type ideal.

Updating Summer 2021 course offerings - Scheduling regulations, departmental class-hour allocations, and information on contact hour calculations are located on the Registrar's Office website at http://registrar.uiowa.edu/course-offerings and http://registrar.uiowa.edu/classroom-scheduling.

TILE classrooms - To request a TILE classroom, the instructor is required to have TILE training. If the instructor changes after the initial assignment of a TILE classroom, a room modification may occur IF the replacement instructor is not TILE-trained. For more information about TILE and training, see the TILE website.

Class times - When requesting a University Classroom, remember to offer your courses according to the approved class times. You can locate the times on the Classroom Scheduling website. If you feel you have reason to appeal these class meeting times, the department chair should e-mail a justification to Renee Houser to request an exception. The Associate Provost for Undergrad Education will make the final decision. See "Exceptions to Standardized Time Block Schedule" for more information.

Submit your course sections to workflow - Click on the ""Submit to Workflow" tab to complete this step. If you miss this final step, the Registrar's Office will not be aware that you intend to offer those sections for the Summer semester, no room assignments are made, and the sections will not appear on MyUI.

Delete sections from the planner that you do not plan to offer - This does not delete your courses from the MAUI Course Library or the General Catalog; it only indicates you will not offer those sections in Summer 2021.

If you need assistance - You can access "Planner Help" in MAUI. This is located on the left-hand side of your Offerings Planner screen in the shaded area. There is a link for "Planner Support" for you to email any questions you may have. You also may email questions to Charlene Maher.

Proof copy - Select the fields you want to display on your proof copy by using the arrow to select the fields you want to capture. Change the session date in the upper-right side of the screen and press the "Go" tab near the bottom of the page. A proof copy can be requested at any time which will show your real time changes. The "Proof Copy" link is located at the left-hand side of your Offerings Planner screen in the shaded area under "Planner Menu".

DEO and campus address information on MyUI - Check MyUI for your current college/departmental information. If you have changes, email Jan Brunstein at Jan Brunstein.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you.
