Glossary
Organization
Section titled “Organization”A school’s or team’s shared space with members and projects. The roles are Owner, Admin, and Member.
Project
Section titled “Project”The schedule for a period, such as a school year or semester. Subjects, resources, timetables, lessons, and placements each belong to a project.
Timetable
Section titled “Timetable”The weekly schedule that usually represents a class. It has a short code (Alias), a name, and lessons; lesson slots apply to the whole project.
Resource timetable
Section titled “Resource timetable”The weekly schedule for a teacher or room. It shows the placements assigned to that resource across the project’s class timetables.
Subject
Section titled “Subject”The teaching subject of a lesson, such as Mathematics with the alias MAT.
Teacher
Section titled “Teacher”A person assigned to a lesson. In Stundenwerk, teachers are one type of resource.
A location assigned to a lesson. Rooms are also resources.
Resource
Section titled “Resource”The collective term for teachers and rooms. Resources can be assigned to lessons and individual placements.
A short code such as MAT, AB, or R101, using only A–Z, a–z, 0–9, and hyphens. A code can appear only once in each list within a project; teachers and rooms share the same set of codes.
Lesson
Section titled “Lesson”A subject in a class timetable with a count of how often it should be taught (Total). You can assign teachers and rooms.
Count or total
Section titled “Count or total”How often a lesson should be taught in total, including occurrences already placed, with a minimum value of 1. With Total 4 and three placements, one occurrence remains in the pool.
Occurrence
Section titled “Occurrence”One teaching session counted in a lesson’s Total, either still in the lesson pool or already placed in the weekly grid.
Placement
Section titled “Placement”One lesson occurrence in a specific cell of the weekly grid. Its resources can differ from the other occurrences.
Lesson pool
Section titled “Lesson pool”The area beside or below the grid with available occurrences: total minus placements. A number appears only when more than one occurrence remains; without a number, one remains.
Lesson slot
Section titled “Lesson slot”A timetable row, such as 08:00–08:45 or Period 1. Project settings determine its label and order.
Class teacher
Section titled “Class teacher”A teacher assigned to a class timetable in its settings. This assignment is separate from teachers assigned to individual lessons.
Occupancy
Section titled “Occupancy”The Lessons column under Teachers and Rooms counts occupied time slots. If a teacher or room is assigned to several lessons at the same time, that slot counts once. Hidden assignments count, but lessons not yet scheduled do not. The target is a comparison, not a scheduling limit.
Conflict
Section titled “Conflict”The same teacher or room is assigned to multiple placements on the same weekday and lesson slot in the project, even within one class. One conflict counts per resource and cell, even with more than two placements; hiding does not prevent it.
Approved conflict
Section titled “Approved conflict”An intentionally accepted but unresolved double booking under Approved; no placement or resource is changed. You can revoke approval, and adding another placement or resource assignment to the affected cell revokes it.
Hidden resource
Section titled “Hidden resource”An assigned teacher or room whose alias is omitted from the standard class-timetable PDF while the placement stays visible. The assignment still counts toward occupancy and conflicts and remains in the resource’s individual PDF; hiding therefore does not protect confidential data.
Overview export
Section titled “Overview export”A single PDF with selected timetables or resources side by side, showing placements but not the lesson pool. A separate export instead produces a PDF for one plan and individual PDFs in a ZIP file for several plans.
